In my view, the term mindfulness was brought into the public eye by Thich Nhat Hahn's book "The miracle of mindfulness", and then popularised by figures like Eckhart Tolle with his famous "The power of now". This appears to me to have brought meditation into the mainstream in a form suitable for those with a religion or none. As a coping strategy or a daily practice, many find it brings peace, greater self-awareness and an acceptance of what is.
