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

in #psychology7 years ago

@abigail-dantes you never fail to amaze me. Ive been waiting for a post coming from you for days. I guess you were quite busy. This blog about mindfulness is very timely and I truly relate with this presently. I posted on my blog that I have negative thoughts about responsibilities because of Adulting and it stresses me a lot which pushes me to a point that I could not make rational judgements anymore. Your explanation of mindfulness is definitely and absolutely correct. The more we deny to ourselves that we have problems makes us more vulnerable in breaking down. In life we should accept that things happen because they happen. And instead of sulking about it,the best things that we could do is accept it and move on. Mindfulness also highlights the importance of self-awareness. Where one should understand his/her inner self to have a complete grasp who he really is. Emotional Intelligence could also be associated with mindfulness since both talks about submitting our emotions to wisdom. Great post once again @abegail-dantes. As someone who also enjoys posting about psychology topics. You are someone I look up to.

Hello @sakura1012 thank you so much for your incredibly kind words :) It feels really motivating for me having this kind of feedback. I am sorry to keep you waiting; but, I would like to let you know that I post every Friday - around midday in Portugal :)

I really like how you summarized the core concept of the three elements we discussed here and even related it to emotional intelligence. That is quite smart, actually! While some criticize the notion of mindfulness, I tend to believe that, like you said:

The more we deny to ourselves that we have problems makes us more vulnerable in breaking down

All the best!

You made me smile @abigail-dantes,I'm grinning from ear to ear because of this lovely message. I will definitely look forward to another amazing post from you. Cheers!
