Potential words for mindfulness in French

The English language is much better than French at mixing words together and create new words with new meanings. For instance, there is no word for "mindfulness" in French. Instead, it's called "pleine conscience" (full awareness).

As a result, reading any content in French about mindfulness feels strange: "full awareness is a way to be fully aware of..."

Some ideas for alternatives:

  • Suggesting esplénitude: esprit (mind) + plénitude (fulness)
  • Ben Villière suggested pleinsoi (full + self) and contemplativité
  • What else?
