Mind-full-ness is really about mind-empty-ness. Much like meditation, it is about the focus and simplicity of one's thoughts. People are in a constant state of trying to achieve, which means that they are in a constant state of living in the future. Mindfulness is something that must be practiced; people have to continue telling themselves that they are enough and that they have enough. Today, in this moment, there is nothing else. Ironically, wants become attainable when they are let go. Mindfulness is a way of being and living every day. It is life itself. It is remembering that what is being done right now is all there is.

In order to practice mindfulness in the spa, skin care professionals should pay complete attention to the client, with nothing else on their mind; listen to what the client needs; breathe deeply all day long; and allow only positive thoughts about themselves and the world to exist in their minds. Professionals will be amazed at how things can change for them when they make themselves aware of being mindful every day. The more they remind themselves to be mindful, the more they will begin to do so without much thought.
