RE: Psychology Addict # 28 | Mindfulness - Acceptance, Awareness & Being Present

in #psychology7 years ago

I did not really know about this practice but it would be great to be able to cope with stress, anxiety, pain or illness. Too often we do not carry out our actions in a conscious way, but we let ourselves be dragged; we act driven by the impulses and totally ordinary thoughts that run through our mind like a river, if not like a waterfall. We are trapped in that torrent, which ends up flooding our lives and takes us to places we might not want to go to or maybe we did not even know we were heading to.
And instead of letting ourselves be carried away, sitting by its edge, listening to it, learning from it, and then using its energy so that, instead of dominating us, it serves as a guide.
It's something that in particular would help me a lot, thank you for sharing about these interesting things!

Hello @pedval25 :)

Well, you say you didnt't know about mindfulness before; but, I must say, I am very impressed with how you described the way we experience our emotions and how they, indeed, controll us without us even noticing. Sometimes, the solution is on the simplest things, such as : stopping for a moment and taking a deep breath!

It made me very happy to hear you saying the elements of mindfulness can help you cope with your day-to-day life stress :)

All the best to you!

Si es cierto y me parece que es muy útil en la vida diaria, el tema de la atención plena y yo me propongo investigar más sobre este tema y darte las gracias por la publicación de tan importante recurso para superarnos cada día más.
