Findings

The idea of mindfulness – the state achieved by focusing awareness on the present moment, while calmly acknowledging and accepting feelings, thoughts, sensations – has ancient roots, but has only recently begun to gain significant adoption as a mainstream technique or therapy. Indeed, it has seemed to have gained more credence and followers in a post-global financial crisis, smartphone-saturated world where getting away from things and focusing on the good things in life seem to matter much more to greater numbers of people.

Originality/value

The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
