I have a fondness for good quotes.  They are rich little nuggets of wisdom compacted into a few short lines.  Here are a couple to for you to ponder today.

“The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, not to worry about the future, or not to anticipate troubles, but to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly.” Buddha

“Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who said it, no matter if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense.” Buddha

Mindfulness - Nothing Quite Like It

Sunday, December 28th, 2008

mindfulness2Mindfulness is being present and aware that you are in control of all the outcomes in your life.  How do you find mindfulness? There are many ways: meditation, NLP techniques, breathing techniques..essentially any technique or action that forces you to stop that chatter box in your mind. Imagine always being present and aware of your own thoughts, and fully understanding that your thoughts are just thoughts and allowing yourself to just let them go and clear your mind. It feels pretty good I bet. When you clear your mind of all thoughts, then you are truly experiencing the present moment.

Being mindful is realizing that your happiness and fate does not come from an outside force.

Pay attention to this simple formula:

EVENT + PERCEPTION = OUTCOME

Event: you may or may not have control over.
Perception: you have 100% control over.
Outcome: you have control over depending how YOU choose to perceive the event.

By reviewing the above formula it becomes obvious that if you are living a happy life, that is because on some level you made a decision to do so; just as if you are living a life that does not bring you much happiness then that is by choice too. It all comes down to how we choose to perceive the events that make up our life. The issue for many is that they do not realize there is a choice. Instead they allow themselves to to be guided by external energies rather then harnessing and controlling the ones from within - the one’s that truly matter.

To be mindful, you need to be in the present moment. It seems we spend most of our time thinking about the past and worrying or planning the future. We don’t spend enough time experiencing the here and now. Through working with Kamjah and practice, you can train yourself to stop the internal chatter box and begin to focus on what you are currently doing. When you take the time to enjoy and relax, you may come to realize what you are missing when you are not in the present moment. When you are mindful, fresh baked bread smells better, time with family and friends may seem longer and more relaxing. Everything seems to be more enjoyable when your mind is full of the present.

Interesting Side Note: This concept of mindfulness was actually first visited many years ago. It’s clearly outlined in the ancient Buddhist teaching of the four noble truths:

Dukkha: The nature of suffering
Sanudaya:  Sufferings’ origin
Nirodha:  Sufferings’ cessation
Marga:  The way leading to cessation of suffering

Staying Present Minded & Trusting Your Unconscious

Monday, December 22nd, 2008

present moment

Living in the present is a powerful way to live. When you are present minded your body is in sync with your mind which frees you from your slavish self limiting thoughts, oppressive fears and unneeded anxieties. Being present allows you to be mentally free by completely focusing on the moment. In those present minded moments, you get to enjoy and experience life to it’s fullest and greatest potential without any self imposed negativity or doubts getting in the way.

Present minded people have their conscious mind, unconscious mind and physical body synced, as that is what allows them to stay present. A big part of making and keeping that connection is learning to trust your unconscious.

Your unconscious mind never sleeps. It’s always on and always recording even at night when your conscious mind goes to sleep. There really isn’t much that your unconscious mind isn’t aware of. When we allow ourself to relax and trust our unconscious, the answers we seek will naturally flow. One of the big issues so many have with staying present minded is knowing how to simply let go and begin trusting their unconscious. Wouldn’t you agree that it would be beneficial to let go of all your sabotaging conscious mind chatter? You know the kind that forces you to look inside to validate any and all negative thoughts you may have about yourself or that you allow others to project onto you. Once you get rid of the mind chatter, you take the first step toward clearing the communication pathways between your unconscious and conscious mind thus leading towards a more present minded life. Becoming present minded is one of the first steps toward living a better life
