Embracing darkness
by Listener89104
Last post
 February 29th
...See more All the posts I read on here (if it's not someone describing certain events/incidents) or on social media are all positive, bubbling with energy.. Tho everyone these days says embrace yourself. But *** fears diving unto themselves. Your whole self is not all positive n excited. It's the seriousness, the depth, the darkness inside you too that is an existing part of you. The world does not end if you recognize it, sit with it, give its existence validity. Rather the world inside you calms down, becomes slower, like weight off your back. What is it about trauma that keeps reminding / remembering us of the good old days ? It's the mind taking us to a safe place. For teens might be childhood time, for adults might be college days or school days.. Ego is always self-preservative. So in trauma / extreme stressful situation, it takes you to your happy place. A lot of psychologists / psychiatrist also take people to their happy place, as part of therapy. Else one can develop things like anxiety, ptsd etc. Overtime. But that therapy is not the solution alone. It's like a pause button, for you to take a break (which you really need). N then get up, go on n fight the world again hehe, no, go on n start bettering yourself again. embracing your serious side, facing your fears, contemplating in darkness helps too. Just not what people like to handle. Plunging inside your mindful abyss is too scary for most.

You are allowed to unlearn who you’ve been if it isn’t who you are anymore.
by Armytae
Last post
 February 29th
...See more You are allowed to unlearn who you’ve been if it isn’t who you are anymore. Our society doesn’t make much room for change to be okay. We’re so often told to choose, to commit, to stay the course… we’re told that if we care about something enough, we’ll do whatever it takes to make it work. Sometimes, this is true — sometimes, we *will* do whatever it takes. And… sometimes, we’ll realize it just isn’t for us anymore. We’ll realize there are parts of us we want to let go of and leave behind. We’ll realize we don’t feel the same now as we used to. We'll realize our ideas and dreams and visions have changed. We'll realize *we've* changed, which might shift how we want to show up in the world. When we let shifting, changing, and doing something different be okay, we open ourselves up to the opportunity of reconnecting with our truth and our meaning, over and over. Giving ourselves (and others) permission to redefine who we are throughout our lives is freedom. What part of you doesn’t quite fit these days? What story isn’t really true for you anymore? What pattern isn’t serving you any longer? What role are you filling that you might want to examine deeper? How are you shifting, changing, and growing? What are you redefining? And, how are you making room for all of it to be okay?

Long term practice anxiety
by calmabiding
Last post
 March 14th, 2023
...See more My meditation journey has been so complicated. For years I practiced all the time. Went on retreats. And my anxieties and worries faded away. At one point, however, I developed a severe panic disorder. And in therapy I realized it had to do with my meditation practice. But it was likely that I was in a situation where the practice was a project. There was a pressure to keep advancing to the next level. Now my relationship with meditation is fraught. I subconsciously resist having a regular practice of any sort. Even the simple mindfulness that was so helpful to me. Trying to be gentle with myself. Using a habit streak tracker. Watching the gaps widen and eventually doing some more practice. Sometimes trying one of the more complicated practices I used to enjoy doing. But nothing will stick. I’m grateful though — since I stopped pushing myself to do a ton of meditation all the time my panic disorder has subsided. I suppose time will tell — maybe the big lesson I was supposed to learn from this journey is gentleness. Even in the pursuit of calm.

...See more Good morning, beautiful souls! Today is a brand new day filled with endless possibilities and opportunities. Take a deep breath and remind yourself that you are worthy of love, happiness, and success. You have so much to offer to the world, and your unique talents and abilities are what make you truly special. Remember to take care of yourself today - both physically and mentally. Make time for self-care activities that nourish your soul, whether it's taking a relaxing bath, going for a walk in nature, or simply treating yourself to your favorite meal. You deserve to feel good and to be kind to yourself. Embrace your flaws and imperfections, for they make you who you are. Instead of dwelling on your mistakes, focus on your accomplishments and all the amazing things you have achieved. Believe in yourself and your ability to overcome any obstacles that come your way. So go out there and seize the day with confidence and positivity! You are amazing, you are loved, and you are capable of anything you set your mind to.

The Mindfulness Center welcomes you to a place where it is okay to just be, and not worry about 100 things. You can observe nature or your own room, follow your breath going in and out, or be aware of your feet touching the sidewalk as you head home. It is all mindfulness. 

There are no hard and fast rules on how to be mindful, and you do not have to do anything a certain way. There are guidelines to help us stay on the path of mindfulness, like in the Daily Checkins, where team members share insights and tips about mindfulness. You can join in the discussions there, or in any of the forum threads. 

You will also find videos in the resource center that talk about what is mindfulness and guide us on a journey to having an actual experience right now of what it feels like to be free of our “thought train”, as we let ourselves go and relax a bit. If all of this sounds good, join us for hosted sessions in which you can discuss and experience mindfulness first hand. 

If you like to join the Mindfulness Team apply here:

Community Guidelines

Stop and breath. Respect yourself and have compassion for what you are going through. 

Notice what is happening around you that your senses are telling you. Feel the breath go in and go out.

Feel good about yourself. Life has brought you on a journey up to here. That is reason to celebrate and appreciate all that life offers. And listen and feel the breath!
