There are two strategies and they are not mutually exclusive.

To me meditating is inward focus, going deep into self, requires preparation and start with small time periods. Silence, stillness and peace. Emptiness of mind, freeing the spirit, space, breathing.

Whereas I see mindfulness as outward focus from a place of peace and is quiet observation, being in the now and aware.

It amuses me to read mindful meditation, it seems an oxymoron, but no doubt there is an explanation. I cant multitask it.

I involve myself in mindfulness at work, one can tolerate hours of it, and it can help concentration.
