Not As Mindful As You Think: a Multidisciplinary Review of the Conscious and Non-Conscious Processes of Mindfulness and Consumption

Mindfulness has been defined as an intentional, effortful, conscious practice. More recent literature, however, points to non-conscious processes, that have not been thoroughly considered. We review the mindfulness and consumption literature and provide an overview situating these contradictory assumptions based on conscious versus non-conscious processes and intended versus unintended outcomes.
