"...those are all just thoughts, but most of the time we think of them as the truth."

Great definition of mindfulness. Love the addition of "as if my life depended on it" too!
Living in the moment, tasting things better and noticing things more etc etc are all great side effects for me because I do this to keep stress away, My other job stress is unbelievable and my health took a bashing, 3 strokes later I stumbled across *mindfulness meditation* 45 minutes a day no excuses and I have *zero stress* just follow and observe my breath, so simple and can be a life saver!
+Gigsand Busking great stuff!
Can you please help me how to do mindfulness meditation. Please provide any video links which helps you because there are hundreds of video which makes confusion.
@@Kishor_Kumarr unsubscribed to the GAIA app/channel because it has an incredible amount of meditations! It’s worth it!
This small talk, changed my life for good! Thank you Jon. Life is wonderful, when you embrace every second of it AND be thankful that you're in the now and here.
I think of all the times I worried about the future without thinking and focusing on the present moment. Really makes you sit back and reflect on the current moment.
This man is on fucking point. Mindfulness is to see what is, not what should or ought to be. Just the eternal present, as time is always and only now.
Maybe even to feel timeless.
+ShakinJamacian see I can't be mindful because I could care less abut the present I already know I'm not as skilled as people think they call me musical, I think a grade two can count to twelve and read a list, not to mention I don't have the certificates to teach it anywhere. most places around here in general I couldn't care much less about because they are likely all minimum wage low hour jobs in a conglomerate. people may say I'm skilled at knitting and crochet but it doesn't usually take much skill to mimic what you see on a TH-cam video or tie a slip knot. people may say I'm good at searching for things but after you find websites that tell you how to do things it's mimicry to be able to find things on google etc. I don't have a job and don't have plans to gain the skills to would make me stand out in a workplace.
ShakinJamacian I agree mindfullness is the answer to a free life

shut up
Thinking is all were taught in school, it's supposed to be what helps us to survive, get jobs, and to procreate. But thinking doesn't lead to freedom and happiness. Mindfulness can give you the strength to free yourself from the bonds of this world, relax or to look deeply at your suffering and to understand it's origins. Mindfulness is a lamp of awareness that when shined onto something, reveals the essence of that object.
5:17 minutes.... i don't remember the last time i learned so much in a short time.. mindblown
Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn, Ph.D. has helped me so very much by this conversation and talk.
He shared true information. He's right, we are thinking, thinking and thinking and this race of thoughts makes life miserable.
This guy is a genius
Riding the waves of the breath … wonderful!
Really lovely. I also really appreciate mindfulness. 💜
I've been liking lots of Master Sri Avinash at the moment for my meditation.
I find Sri Avinash's words so comforting. ❤️
Mindfulness is mentioned quite a bit during my Meditation Group Sessions....Very Grateful to hear this information and to see this video
thank you I love the way you describe mindfulness and being instead of doing
I like it. Some very pertinent points and he makes them well. Thanks for posting.
Thank you sir...you are spot on
Thank you for this video.
Love this guy
Words to live by
Which is a culmination of all the events of our past. Although I wholeheartedly agree with quietening the incessant chatter of our minds (I do TM) helps us deal with our future and all it's attendant problems.
I will practice mindfulness, I would like to become a nicer, calmer person.
SO what happened?
Very well done video. A difficult concept to describe I would imagine.
The best way is to experience what is says. Try to listen to his words and live them, experiment them again and again and you will see progress everyday, it's a trip not a destination.
Good to know!Very nice!
Very interesting!!! Thanks so much for share this information it´s amazing!
Thought is to bring facts to your brain,
And mindfulness is to ask yourself a questions

1:37 "huge amount of time planning and worrying about the future, and a huge amount of time reminiscing about the past"
_If you have one foot in yesterday, and one foot in tomorrow, you're pissing all over today._
---AA saying
It doesn't get any more clear than that, There is only now.
wow magic
Yes lord my thoughts omg help me 🤗🙏🏽

Great video! Content like this is so important. I started making similar videos, too! Keep it up!

I have no idea what he is on about yet loads of comments sayings it's great, what am I missing!
One correction as an additional benefit to meditation: Science shows that creative new ideas can only come when one is NOT in the Default "thinking" network of the brain. So that is an additional plus for meditation.
I thought mindfulness was meditation. Now I'm lost. I've been doing meditation for years and it's worked. Now I feel I don't even understand what it actually means.
I'm a little late here but meditation is a way of being mindful and its more of an exercise to strengthen mindfulness. But mindfulness itself can be done at every given moment. Its focusing on the now and noticing things like your breathe just like meditating and everything else around you. Its also noticing your feelings and accepting them but not letting them control you.
What happens if someone has a tumor. Thinking about the present would be stressing cause if he or she is aware of what happens at that very moment.
But so what if you're aware of how you're feeling and why?
+Faure Swanepoel So there is a lot to this question. First of all, there is the suffering that life gives you, and there is the suffering that we create ourselves(through ruminating on the past, or worries about the future, trying to avoid negative feelings in unhealthy ways, etc.). Being able to be present, in the moment, and be willing to experience your emotions nonjudgmentally (in an observer mind) significantly helps people stop the cycles that create their own suffering and be at peace with the experiences that they are having.
Buddha have taught us Mindfullness technique 2600 BC it is called " Vipassana " / Anapanasati.
Buddha if fiction, fake, not real
"The ability to entertain a thought without accepting it is the sign of an educated mind "
~Not me
Moving from traditional meditation, I feel that this is more mindful. How do I know if I'm doing things right?
I guess if your thinking negatively all the time, or insisting you must be happy all the time.... you haven't quite mastered it yet. I think it's about stopping and saying "whats the pros and cons of this situation" Listening to your emotions so they can help you make decisions instead of taking over you. Meditation is useful though, it's like resetting your mind, so you can think more clearly and take a fresh look at things.
Edie Brown You don’t because this is just another new age crock that will make you NOT pay attention because you’ll be obsessed with being mindful all. The. Time. Just relax and be you. Funny that,isn’t it?
Who can I contact to get permissions to use this in a website I am creating for my thesis?

What is NoFap? I find combining mindfulness with walking at a fast pace very powerful because I get the high of the exercise and the healing effect of the mindfulness at the same time. So that 20 to 30 minute period lifts my mood and I feel peaceful and high towards the end. I pay attention either to my movement or to my breathing as I walk.
Has anyone healed with his medditstions?
Ok
Does somebody know if your third eye can open out of the sudden or you getting an obe when youre practising mindfulness( 20 minutes focussing on your breath and letting al your thougts float away) ?

I'm only memorizing his short definition so I can sound smart at my next psychology appointment otherwise I couldn't care much less.
Teach me to forget bad things
Andrea Lovely That is not the purpose of mindfulness. But it might help you to spend more time in the present than the past, and come to terms with whatever happened in the past. I wish you peace.
Thank you! I had recent bad experiences with a neighbour. Horrible people. I want to put that in the past and move on. Thank you once again.

He merely described TM, Buddhism, and it's old news repackaged.

...as if your life depended on it!
I don't know
"Perseverate" - what does that mean? Is it a strange American corruption of persevere?
Ruminate "over and over"
if I can do this for 3 mins a day then I can manage it. Any more and i'll have problems. Borderline ADHD here I think. lol
Nah :D this is totally normal. gotta start small. you cant meditate for like half an hour at first.
I fell asleep during this,..
Mindfulness works for some people. Not me.
Every human being has a seed of mindfulness in him and does practice it without even knowing about it. it just need to be nurtured by practice, it can accomplish literally miracles.
What would constitute 'working' for you? And what have yo tried and for how long?
@@mindfuleats4517 Sorry for the delay in responding.
I was 'roped into' Mindfulness training at work two years ago. We were told all about how great mindfulness is, but not what it was or how to do it (other than the annoyingly vague 'be present').
So, me being me, I did some research. All I found were repetitions of the same woolly explanations without serious scientific backing - in fact, the scientific 'facts' were cherry-picked benefits and any negative scientific results were not published by mindfulness advocates. Every website and blog had a shop to buy hippy stuff and a 'Donate to us so we can continue to live our mindful life' paypal account. Mindful scrounging.
Jon Kabat-Zin is worth millions. Andy Puddicombe (headspace) is worth 25 million pounds. Any book with 'Mindful' on its cover is more expensive than the non-mindful equivalent. It's a racket in sandals. They are the prophets of profit.
Companies like mindfulness because they can appear to be doing something for workplace stress, rather than eliminate the stress. It's medicine, not a cure.
I don't need mindfulness. It's a con.
@@Chebab-Chebab Ahh so wrong, but I feel the pain in your words. I hope you've found some peace.
Something about all this smells fishy. “ Being here now” should be integrated into our zeitgeist enough to not need it in another cloak. Still,it’s helpful sometimes to see the obvious with a new name to it as a reminder. I just hate the moniker “ mindfulness” and having to be bored by a re- do.
Mindfulness doesnt solve poverty and poverty is the cause of more problems than lack of mindfulness
48 dislike!!! haters
Calling them haters isn't being very mindful. You're supposed to be non-judgmental.
Ask him what the present moment is - he won't be able to tell you - he a teaches mindfulness like painting by numbers - as far as I can see he does not know reality for real
Ok but stupid name for it. It sounds much more like MIndUNfull, ness.
sounds like a bunch of double talk
Working on it
