When harmful or unhealthy habits form, they can cause us much suffering
and they can be hard to change because they are carried out
automatically and without conscious awareness. Mindfulness is a key to
changing harmful or unwanted habits as it provides skillful methods and
practices to bring them into the light of awareness. Three elements of
mindfulness are particularly important in changing unhealthy or unwanted
habits - Intention, Attention, and Attitude. The talk explores these
three elements with a focus on Intention.
