A good definition of mindfulness:
The word mindful comes up frequently in my book and in the yoga community, where it can have different meanings.

Because we know the world through the body, the third principle draws attention or awareness to the ability of the body to control the mind.

Having questions about the how and why of anything is the best use of the
mind. In relation to yoga and cancer, questions like, “Why is yoga beneficial to cancer survivors?” and “How can yoga heal or make our bodies more resistant to cancer?” are helpful. This is how we want the mind to work rather than having fear of developing a new cancer.
