Mindfulness, ethics and values
Watch Craig and Richard explore the link between mindfulness, values and ethics, and see how we can use mindfulness to start engaging in more ethical behaviour ourselves.
As we become more present through mindfulness, we become more aware of our speech and actions, and the effects these have on others. As we develop greater intimacy with ourselves, we also start to get in touch with deeper values and aspirations. As we bring these more into our everyday actions, we naturally start to act in ways that are more ethical – and notice the benefits this has both for ourselves and others.
