Is it wrong to be a mindful person? That depends on what one means by being "mindful." There is a difference between being mindful of the truths that honor the one true God. But the practice of "mindfulness" is another one of those incompatible, deceptive New Age practices that is being smuggled into the church like a Trojan Horse. If you find yourself being mindful in the manner of emptying your mind of various distractions or focussing on yourself rather than the truths of what God says, then you may be involved in the wrong kind of "mindfulness."
What is mindfulness? Is there anything compatible with the biblical concept of being mindful? In this episode, I show how being mindful biblically as opposed to the practice of mindfulness are worldviews apart from one another. Again, syncretism was not only a problem that the nation of Israel had in Old Testament times; but many Christians today have the same problems with syncretizing New Age and Eastern practices with the Christian faith. And mindfulness is one of those new age practices.
