I broke down in tears during the closed fist practice. SUCH a powerful and intuitive insight. Will use it in my teachings for sure! Thanks a lot for this.

Thank you so much for offering trauma sensitive mindfulness practices and drawing attention to some pitfalls of mindfulness or meditation practices. So far most teachers I have met seem to think meditation is a 'cure for all' or think mindfulness will automatically result in compassion and kindness (as well as better sleep and a whole lot more). Whereas with me certain practices have conditioned me to become more dysregulated as well as be more judgmental about myself. Only allowing myself to practice 'my own way' has helped me continue and reap some benefits. For instance not focusing on breath but on sounds and therefore ignore the instructions. I hope more teachers will get a more balanced view on meditation and become more trauma-informed.

Wow! What an amazing and insightful webinar. Well done!

I think the "mindfulness" movement is due a reckoning, and Dr Treleaven is helping start that reckoning.

This is fantastic, very informative. I really like what David is talking about, and I really appreciate everything that has been shared. Thank you so much!

Amazing high quality content

[@jeffha4057]

That was wonderful! I'm so happy I stumbled across this webinar!

That story of where the teacher said to the student "would you like go outside and run up that hill and then come back" that's sounds very similar to milton erickson's principle of utilization.

Very good talk and practice. I am curious though when David (Dr. Treleaven) said on the second anchor "not traveling out to the sounds." How does one be receptive but not travel out to the sounds specifically? The second thought I had was how mindfulness is taught to deaf and hard-of-hearing communities. If we take the sound out of the equation completely how does that change how mindfulness is taught?

[@MrMattias87]

I think what he means by not travel out to the sounds is being not completely fixed on the sounds themselves but just only notice them without judgement or analyses or fixation.
