Or learn to play guitar, youll enjoy the stress release and the comfort of ease of mind, total disconnection. And will acquire some skills, but thats probably not as cool as the next superficial spiritual feature
I got my heart broken so bad at 19 I started practicing mindfulness and doing yoga. I’m 21 I’ve never felt more amazing more calm more patient I live in the moment and Ive found peace and I love myself
People have been doing this for millenia in one form or another. It’s just been repackaged as mindfulness in recent years.
Honestly, how does this shit help my problems? And i mean like what is feeling air going into your lungs going to do for you.

i am asian .I recommend simple meditation .
Sit in the position that is most comfortable for you. Do not sit in a semi-asleep position. Sit in a quiet place. Not hot, not cold, not hungry, not sleepy. Then close your eyes. Breathe in and out slowly, naturally, without straining. Put your hands on your lower abdomen. and try to feel your stomach stretch out. (This process may take several days.) Next, put your feelings on your breath. Take a deep breath and feel it. Breathe out and feel it. Just do this. Peace of mind, stress, pressure, ADHD. will alleviate in not using..
want to go to america
Are there any rich people?
Please help me🙏🙏🙏
I am willing to do any of your work. I will be your servant.
Picture if we directed this level of focus towards the present instead of dwelling on the future or past. The more we stay in the present, the more we can accomplish.
У нас в россии детей учат сосредотачиваться на "величии" путина, быть глубоко несчастными, полными ненависти к демократическим странам и народу Украины. Попробую Ваш способ👍
Anxiety is from living in the thoughts too much, by relaxing and moving into your body and feeling it instead thinking only does help. However chronic anxiety is a coping mechanism learned that if your in your head you can’t actually feel the emotions that we like to run away from, as we become adults it becomes learned helplessness. By being mindful we can feel and we can act accordingly to what is needed. Eg in an uncomfortable situation if you feel anxiety, you can breathe into the uncomfortable situation before the anxiety takes over and respond with saying this makes me feel uncomfortable please stop or I am leaving now. You have the power to leave most situations and not have to live with anxiety.
I want this girlfriend ❤
Thanks for an easy explanation.
Embracing The Art Of Mindful Self-Care. Ebook soon to be paperback
My name is Lydia and for a second I thought this video was literally talking to me 😂😂
Why won’t this people get out of my technology? Did I stand up or did the world stand out? I think it was the world. Please get out of my technology with this hate speech you’re invading my privacy as well as my Civil Rights. These are laws passed to Congress. I have been going through this too many years I am feeling trauma. The American people need to know AT&T is a supporter of proven totalitarianism without a claim, or a subpoena.
I wanted to listen. To this video but my worries kept me from focusing on the instructions
Isn’t this yog nidra ?
this is a masterpeice
This is a profound compilation of insights. A similar book I read had an indelible impact on me. "Mindful Mastery: Living Intentionally in a Chaotic World" by Kyle Ash
Mindfulness simply means being present ! It is something i struggled with for so long … it doesn’t matter if what you’re ruminating on is positive or negative in the long run it causes you a lot of unhappiness and stress regardless 😊 Being mindful and focused should be taught to every child because even the ones that struggle (like me with OCD/adhd) it can still always improve with practice !
Well I wasn’t mindful throughout the video…
On Mindfulness, motivation, and pleasure: a different procedure and perspective from affective neuroscience
Procedure: Consistent and periodic alternation between a resting protocol (e.g. mindfulness) and the exclusive pursuit of meaningful behavior will increase motivation and positive affect (arousal and pleasure), and by making meaningful ideation more emotionally salient, will increase productive motivation and crowd out thoughts leading to anxiety and depression.
Explanation: Resting elicits opioid activity, or feels pleasurable, and meaningful behavior, as defined as behavior that has branching novel and positive outcomes (writing that great novel or just making the bed) elicits dopamine activity which causes attentive arousal. The awareness of subsequent meaningful behavior while engaging in relaxation protocols such as mindfulness elicits a ‘priming’ response, namely dopamine release that enhances ongoing opioid activity, and vice versa, making meaningful behavior seem self-reinforcing or ‘autotelic’, with cognition less likely to transition to perseverative thought (worry, regret, distraction) that elicits tension or anxiety. In other words, arousal and pleasure (i.e., dopamine and opioid) systems when simultaneously activated by disparate stimuli are synergistic, and co-activate each other to be more than the affective sum of their parts.
Although meditative practice reduces discursive thought or mind wandering that can lead to negative ideation or perseverative thought; it does not inhibit concurrent non-conscious awareness or anticipation of behavior or events subsequent to meditation that can in turn shape or ‘prime’ affective responses during a meditative session. A priming response, like the salivary response that precedes food or the sexual arousal that precedes intimacy, is a preparatory response that often occurs non-consciously, and changes the affective value or ‘feeling’ in the moment. Similarly, relaxing due to ‘being in the moment’ is pleasurable, but if we were told to expect ‘bad’ news or ‘good’ news in the near future, just the awareness of future events is enough to depress or elevate our feelings, but not altering in the slightest our ‘mindful’ or relaxed state. It follows that if mindfulness is paired with the awareness of subsequent positive or meaningful behavior, then rest in mindfulness will have a greater affective tone or ‘feel better’ than if such a prospect or expectancy was absent. This is perhaps why ‘savoring’, ‘loving kindness’ meditation, and ‘flow’ experiences represent highly pleasurable and arousing experiences, as they make future positive ideation contingent to obvious or subtle pleasures (due to relaxation, eating, drinking) and contrast with a lower level of pleasure during typical states of rest that generally precede a return to meaningless discursive thinking.
A final note on mindfulness: Mindfulness is not a one-off procedure to fight stress or feel good, but should be viewed as a default mode of thinking that can be engaged most of the day to manage affect, motivation, and overall wellbeing. However, although the mindfulness procedure is invaluable, a distinctive mindfulness process does not exist, but rather reflects the cognitive manipulation of affective processes in resting or relaxed states, and is not an exceptional process but a normal way of acting and thinking that makes our lives exceptional.

The positive atmosphere in your community is something special. Keep it thriving! 🌟
This "body scan" technique is an ancient yoga technique as is mindfulness. It is normally done in shavasana. The scan is done from toes to head and back with focus on breathing, thoughts and relaxation.

Are we not knowingly practicing this when eating? Is this why I am emotionally eating? I can just do this instead? What!!
I’ve been practicing mindfulness meditation for a while now and still find my heads all over the place, I’ll add this to my technique and keep trying.

Way too fast.
This is phenomenal. I recently read a similar book, and it was nothing short of phenomenal. "Mindful Mastery: Living Intentionally in a Chaotic World" by Kyle Ash
Vipassana. ❤
I am grateful to police and federal security keeping Washington DC safe this 4th of July. I am grateful for all the work they do to maintain safety and prevent the potential dangerous situation.
I am also going to say this, I am deeply in my heart grateful for our President, Joe Biden. I believe that his attitude is perfect and that his heart is in the right place.
This is not the time to rush things, Joe Biden can rest assured he is grounded as the choice for democrats. Let us not be ignorant to the blatant truth, President Biden took over in a time when America was still crippled from the COVID pandemic, stood by the side of a sick country while it rebilitated itself and paved the way for that rehabilitation with good policies and wisdom. Americans have grown healthy under Biden, in a way that no other President can claim, in a uniquely dramatic circumstance and time he was the right choice and I feel thats why we should believe his health and his methods of staying healthy are not just good but exceptional.
President Biden is a spirit of Health, flowering of Obamacare, a harbringer of legal marijuana, yes, Biden legalized it.
Perhaps he is not the end all be all, but I think that his show of hippie compatibility in blowing off a debate with a joke candidate that placed america under pandemic conditions in rhe first place is to be appreciated not shamed for. President Biden should further ‘drop out’ of perspective schewed corrupt conservative society while remaining a seated president and continuing to run for presidency. Do not think that the concept is too much for american thinkers to understand.
To fully get the 100% american experience satiated without waste, Biden must not be afraid to go further than other presidents into that wholesomeness, it may at times seem defiant of rhe conservatives, but that it natural. We must remember what we have health under is worth preserving not rushing
