Agree with this.

My limited experience with mindfulness practices is that it overly focuses on the physical the very locally physical. It essentially ignores anything your physical senses can't perceive right now.

I know one of the goals of the practice is to stop wasting time/effort/awareness on things in the past/future/that are not actually affecting you. This seems beneficial.

Still, mindfulness practiced that way creates a new containment box of the sensory experience.

I suggest more effective would to be aware of that which is affecting you currently regardless of its time and place.
