In this video, Entrepreneur Network partner Jack Canfield outlines how a few different culture practice mindfulness.

The Japanese practice Shirin-Yoku, which Canfield translates directly to forest bathing. This exercise promotes healing amidst the busy schedule of modern living and constant technology use.

These methods concentrating on giving attention to entities outside of the self, by appreciating nature, will help you develop perspective and a calm mindset.

Whatever mindful route you practice, it may feel refreshing to simply go outside for a 15-minute interval and soak up the fresh outdoors. You may be pleasantly surprised at how relaxed you become.
