    It's important to note that 'meditating' doesn't necessarily mean sitting quietly in one spot for 10 to 15 mins.
    You can mediate on your own thoughts as they happen, and reflect on how they controlled your actions when doing repeative tasks like vacuuming a floor, cooking dinner, pumping gas, or just walking.
    It's about viewing yourself as a third person and being honest with your faults and creating solutions to things that you don't like about yourself.
    I am a 42 year old Autistic man who's been practicing 'Mindfulness for the last 30 years as a self defense mechanism against my own emotional responses to things that didn't make sense. I just called it Being Honest With Myself, And Trying To See Things From Their Perspective.
    Which turns out is Empathy Practice to others and yourself, cause you don't do yourself any favors by not understanding why you do things either.

  • @pivotal-ai
    @pivotal-ai 4 года назад +32

    Mindfulness is being aware of your internal world. This awareness allows for a buffer between stimulus and response. This makes a (mindless) reaction turn into a (mindful) response. This buffer is where stillness is found and therefore your power of choice. This links closely to the idea of 1 second decisions. This space is what allows you to take ownership of those one second decisions. For example, running a long distance and the urge to quit comes up but you instead push on.

    I love it when he says "shouldn't i get angry sometimes?".
    Because of Mindfullnes i could control my anger and choose not to act agressive, but sometimes in life is actually better to act agressive.
    But i have so much control over it that acting agressive felt like acting, its feel very weird.
    By the way Mindfullnes does feel like a superpower, being able to feel how the chemicals of stress are being release in your brain and your mind becoming clouded is very surreal.

      i disagree and believe mindfulness is actually mindlessness. Just as the Ying Yang goes there must be a balance between the two, negativity can offer alot of self reflection and constructive criticism. We live in a very narcissistic world where "mindfulness" can do more harm than good, when you consider the hard truth to face that we are all addicted to short term pleasures and rewards you realize that maybe it isnt good to focus on solely the present and the things that make us feel good and that you need negative reflection to change the things you hate about yourself that you know deep down need to change. Simply giving into the world is NOT a power its giving up, it being a sheep! Focusing on the good more than the bad is not how you master life. I believe this "mindfulness" is being used to further push the masses into impulsive short term thinking.

    In this case, fear is a very gripping and important reaction. Anger at someone for putting us in danger is completely normal.

    We have started focusing on it in my school (high school). Current generation of kids are showing themselves to be one of the most anxious generations of kids to walk the earth . . . and this should be no surprise to us given all of the "things" we have given them to help fill their heads with a nonstop swirl of voices, stories, and thoughts; clouding their access to that innate self of wisdom and compassion (especially when it comes to an ability to apply that wisdom and compassion to themselves). I agree with the video . . . I am sure we will begin to see this become more of a mainstream practice happening in schools to counteract the anxious mind that our current society eases the minds of its young into.

    This is a very enjoyable albeit superficial description of Mindfulness, which is considerably more than self-awareness. By this narrow but popular definition, a soldier, or the head of a major corporation which pollutes and uses slave labour, could be mindful. Mindfulness also must include a deeper awareness of how all of our actions affect others, seen and unseen, and includes how and what we consume, and how we make our living. Mindfulness is one part of the Buddha's Noble Eightfold Path, and must be practiced along with the other aspects to bring the greatest benefit to all. May all beings in all realms find happiness.

      Well yea, the Buddha was a man who found the way to happiness and complete fulfillment, that is by living in the present through mindfulness, loving kindness and moderation.
      It also means that, one can't be fully happy and mindful if you're living a lie, like if you steal, cheat, indirectly hurt others through your day to day living, over indulge and get addicted, live in denial, etc...
      But just to begin with, mindfulness can also be practiced through mindful walking, mindful eating, mindful drinking, anything... the more you incorporate it in your life, the better...

    The "self" is the problem. Constant obsession with one's own feelings, one's image and how to improve that self. The most powerful meditation techniques have been coopted by various self-styled gurus in the quest of money. The true goal of meditation is to create an empty space ... to flush out thoughts and physical distractions. That empty space is beneficial on the ordinary physical level as stress is reduced. On the spiritual level it can provide a gateway to a personal awareness of what lies beyond the limitations of that "self".

    A super simplified explanation which makes mindfulness accessible to understand
    But mediation is it worth adding that meditation is only one way to gain that gap between stimulus and response. Emotional Education for example of Gestalt group work,, even Logotherapy etc. not to mention Compassion Focused Therapy (by Paul Gilbert).
    PS taking meds doesn't add to the proposition in my mind. If you do another video (I love the concept so please do) please leave pharmaceutical profiteering out.
    Much love and Metta. D

      @MainelyLove 4 года назад +1

      Exactly. For example, I don't jog. I do other things that I enjoy. And I don't feel the least bit guilty because I don't jog. Other than the that statement and what he said at the end, I liked the message of this video.

    tony robbins explanation of actions stemming from 1 of 2 things: Out of love or Cry's for help helps to understand & forgive why people say and do the things that might cause you to feel unease like anger and being annoyed at them, Would recommend reading or listening to his explanations of this practice if just starting to practice mindfulness for the first time
    additionally worth looking into is the Hindu practice of Ubuntu (observer state of the arrival & then source of one's thoughts & emotion) & Confirmation Biases to ensure your not justifying your own errors of thought + behaviour by blaming everyone else's.
    A great introductory easy read book for getting into mindfulness healthily without conditioned bias's is The art of Thinking Clearly by Rolf Dobelli
    wish someone had recommended me these types of content early in life which is why just typed all this incase helps someone else

    Does anyone remember being consciously aware of their breath today at any point?
    Probably the only ones are the ones with meditative practices. Most people are not in conscious control of the breathing. Mindfulness should be practiced from the moment you get out of bed till bedtime.

    • @kingofwii

    It's exactly what Gurdjieff spoke about, the non expression of negative emotions. We act on it immediately, but it takes genuine strength to not express it and in doing so we create a tug of war in the opposite direction; its a weakness and very tough to go through a full week without doing it.

    I hope that we are not headed to a place where meditation and mindfulness are things that we feel guilty about if we don't practice them. But maybe we are. I do mindfully leave "taking the meds your doctor prescribes" off the list of unqualified "no-brainers".

      I don't mean to sound heartless towards your comment, but its really not that bad, the way the world is going, kids need a little bit of pg-13 exposure every now & then . You don't wanna shelter them too long, I seen through my own siblings that it can create someone who is scared of the "real world" when you censor everything small like that. Because when they grow up and other adults expect them to know about it, that will be their first time hearing/seeing whatever it is you censored now and they will overreact greatly. So I suggest you either accept this for what it is, or find another video. But I'm glad that you like the video and want to share it to inform others.

    Excuse me, but the scientists and the medical doctors had to catch-up with the public. I ran for health in 1969, and a doctor on the street while I was running told me that it was bad for me. I told a doctor in 1965 that I exercised, and he told me that it would give me an enlarged heart.
