Mindfulness and meditation basically rewrote my life, and when I had the opportunity to design The Mindful Spark, I accepted in a heartbeat. It’s a platform designed to help you deepen your mindfulness practice, or learn how to start one.
I built this because I believe taking care of our own minds puts us in a better position to help everyone else. I didn’t reinvent the wheel, I just provided a platform for mindfulness teachers to write about what they love. This project allowed me to combine my developer skills with my love for mindfulness to create an site that serves a greater purpose, while giving me more experience with Next.js and all of it’s quirks.
Lessons from the build
Mindfulness is a work tool. It keeps me focused and calm, especially when a bug is driving me up the wall.
I enjoy working hard, but in order to work hard, I need a solid foundation first.
