Answer to Question 1

Mindlessness, the opposite of mindfulness, occurs when we tune out what is happening around us. Instead, we remember incidents from the past, wonder what others are thinking or doing, make plans, weave fantasies, or worry about the future.

Answer to Question 2

You can become mindful by developing a range of skills, sometimes categorized as what and how skills. A what skill includes observation, which involves looking at and experiencing things as they are, free from thoughts, feelings, and judgments.
