Mindfulness, Self-Compassion, and Greater Well-Being
Friday, November 10th, 2017
Mindfulness is simply being aware of what is happening right now without wishing it were different; enjoying the pleasant without holding on when it changes (which it will); being with the unpleasant without fearing it will always be this way (which it won’t). James Baraz
Or as Jon Kabat Zinn (Full Catastrophe Living) has put it, “Mindfulness means paying attention in a particular way: on purpose, in the present moment, and non-judgmentally.” Come learn what all this means and how one can begin the journey.
And consider this invitation: Start by being okay as you are NOW & then seek the changes you want for yourself and your life. Radical acceptance, as you might call it, is not part of the default process of the mind (you might even notice you don’t like the word “acceptance”). When we think something is wrong, we set about trying to fix it. Collectively, we’ve solved a lot of problems in the world. In our own lives, however, we can be our own worst enemy, undermining efforts to live a more meaningful, satisfying life. What might it mean to undertake the journey from a place of compassion for yourself?
