Mindful dating: where thoughtful singles meet

Couple looking out over a river

21st century living can get frantic. Smartphones, business meetings, school runs and general life-admin end up quickly packing out already busy schedules. Being attuned to this and still finding time for reflection may sound like a luxury, but it’s a necessity. Throw trying to meet someone you’re in-tune with into the mix and you might start wondering if it’s at all possible. Well, it is with EliteSingles. If you’re looking to meet someone who understands mindful dating, you’ve come to the right place.

Integrating mindfulness and intelligent dating

At EliteSingles we’ve tailor-made a service that’s designed to streamline online dating, specifically for single professionals. Backed with years of experience helping successful people fall in love, we’re aware that one of the most important factors for our member’s lives is time. We know that it can be a strain freeing up a few moments, especially when it comes to looking for prospective partners on the web. Add offsetting some of the stress generated by a demanding work-life balance to the equation and things can become a little daunting.

It’s no surprise that over the last few years, the rise of mindfulness has become a much more prominent feature in our lives. Websites like Mindful and apps such as Headspace are evidence of this trend. As modern life defines us, we too must take advantage of technology and use it to our advantage.

At EliteSingles we fully embrace a seamless approach to online dating. Our intelligent matchmaking system has been designed with both accuracy and efficiency in mind. Every prospective member is required to complete an extensive personality test, based on Costa and McRae’s famous Five Factor Model, the results of which are then used to pair you with likeminded singles. Our intuitive algorithm suggests 3-7 high-quality matches based on your answers and desired preferences.

What does mindful dating mean?

You’ve probably come across the term mindfulness once or twice before. But what does it actually mean, and how can it be applied to the world of dating? Being mindful is very much a lifestyle choice nowadays. It’s a term that’s come to be synonymous with clean living and yoga classes. But what does mindfulness look like in practice?

Yes, maintaining a healthy diet and keeping active are important parts of living mindfully. However, mindfulness is much more of an attitude than anything else. A lot of people suggest that the main focus rests on psychological well-being rather than physical fitness, even though the two are without doubt connected. It’s all about being fully present in the moment, conscious of what we’re doing yet not stressed or overwhelmed by the background noise of daily life. Many people seek solace in spirituality to fulfil this function too.

All sound a bit vague? Well, it’s actually the opposite. Practicing meditation or prayer is a great tool when it comes to refocusing your mind and blotting out superfluous stimuli for a moment or two. And it doesn’t have to take up great chunks of time; it can even be a five minute pause in a quiet corner of the office. Stopping for a second to collect your thoughts and taking a few deep breaths before or a meeting or conference call qualify too.

What about mindful dating; how does it work? If you’re trying to instill some mindfulness into your life, it’s a massive boon if your partner is on the same page. Sharing a life with someone who compliments your personality makes it much more straightforward to centre your attention on loving each other. Whether you share a faith, believe in zodiac compatibility, or just enjoy working as levellers for one another, our site is a great place to meet mindful singles.

Check out the mini-tips below for more information on why we’re a dating site that takes mindfulness seriously.
