We all need a boost from time to time.  While it might be tempting to chug an extra shot of espresso, sometimes the thing we need most is the power of positive thinking.

Looking to thought leaders in mindfulness often inspires us to pause and live more fully in the here and now.  When we are so immersed in the current moment that we forget what's going on around us, we are in a state of flow and peak performance.

Maintaining a state of mindfulness leads to a relaxed state of wellbeing and maximum productivity.
