I'm genuinely curious how you approach convincing/persuading people about the merits of mindfulness in Singapore. Given how fast paced it is, I'm certain you face some level of resistance and doubt.
How do you do it? Or is there not a need to convince/ persuade in the first place?
Hi Kelvin, this is an interesting question. Based on my observation, the people I have come to serve with my work mostly already know that mindfulness can positively impact/transform their lives, so in that sense not much persuasion is required. What's needed, in my opinion, is supporting them in the integration of mindfulness in their day-to-day life. Because this is what's most challenging with our practice.
