be mindful
Keep conscious attention
To be mindful is to pay careful attention, especially to the present moment or to potential consequences.
Be mindful of your surroundings.
The phrase often carries a gentle warning: Be mindful that others are waiting.
In meditation contexts, being mindful means maintaining non-judgmental awareness of thoughts and sensations as they arise.
