Mindfulness is the true utopia.

The most fashionable technique today to be calm and happy is mindfulness.

It consists of paying close attention to what surrounds you and stop succumbing to anxiety about the future or to the depression caused by the past.

The philosopher Ernst Bloch, a specialist in studying utopias, considers that the ultimate utopia is precisely in feeling full with our present.

The problem is that many think that mindfulness is an individual issue, when it is also a social one.

Paying attention to the present time when reality is depressing could only push someone to contemplate misery and sink him deeper into sadness.

On the other hand, if our social reality is enjoyable, it will be much easier to look at the present without fear and be happy.
