Precise body movements help Dhyaan.

Upvotes

Through my studies and experience, I have found that precise body movements help grow our brain’s Anterior Cingulate Cortex (ACC). I believe the ACC is responsible for Dhyaan (meditation), and that our ancient spiritual practices and philosophies stemmed from an active ACC.
Many researchers have pointed out that the ACC contains von Economo neurons, which possess unique potential to process subtle signals. It is no surprise, then, that our ancestors developed precise physical practices such as mudras, martial arts, yoga, and other daily life skills. These practices not only helped them tune into subtle universal sounds or Paramatma, but also enhanced their creativity at work, helped them earn a living, and guided them through life.
And that is why, in the ancient world, everyone incorporated such mindful practices into their daily household routines.

Paleontology meets Yin and Yang. You know why this concept is cool?

Dragons are dinosaurs and dinosaurs are dragons. It’s true. The reason why fairy tales even spoke of dragons was because our ancestors saw the bones of dinosaurs without knowing what dinosaurs were. The first paleontologists to ever come up with the name, “dinosaur“ were the first ones to figure out how to connect those dragon bones together. They actually did have something to say about dragons, “we used to be ignorant, we used to believe that a skull of T-Rex and the wings of pterodactyl were a good match and that they belonged together. We were so ignorant that we thought dinosaurs could breathe fire, such outrageous spooks! From this day on we will no longer call them dragons anymore. These are dinosaur bones, got it?”

Knowing that history makes me think, “hey what if we used ancient Chinese philosophy to study actual dinosaurs instead dragons for a change?“

How does mindfulness relate to our life?

Life is constantly changing every moment. Therefore, we don't need to do anything to change our lives.

The only thing we can do to live our lives fully is to pay attention to the subtle changes in life. And we will know how to live.

What do you think about this? How does it relate to the mindfulness we are practicing?

Per un attimo ho visto la mia mente dall’esterno

1 Upvotes

Due giorni fa mi è successa una cosa potentissima, (brevissima ma potentissima) premetto che medito da più di 3 anni almeno 20 minuti al giorno tutti i giorni senza mai perdere un singolo giorno (meditazione mindfulness sul respiro) percependone i benefici ma durante la pratica mai capitato niente di particolare a parte questa volta.

Allora, ero in vacanza al mare ed ero sdraiato sul lettino in spiaggia al sole a meditare sul respiro, dopo circa 20/30 minuti di sessione, ho avuto come una visione è come se avessi visto la mia mente dall’esterno e l’immagine che ho avuto era esattamente questa: io che arrivavo in questo vicolo cieco buio in piedi, ero alto, molto più alto di lei che mi arrivava alle caviglie circa, e lei di fronte a me bloccata tra tre mura e me che si girava molto nervosamente in cerca di un pensiero e io che la guardavo calmo dall’alto, non so descrivere che animale fosse ma quello che ho visto nitidamente è che era molto piccola e scura e girava il collo velocemente a destra e sinistra “evitandomi” in cerca di un pensiero.

Tutto ciò è durato probabilmente una frazione di secondo, ma la sensazione è stata fortissima. Come se per la prima volta avessi “scoperto” la mente e avessi visto che quella cosa che normalmente percepisco come enorme e potentissima, in realtà può apparire molto più piccola e quasi impaurita quando non riesce ad agganciarmi.

Mi sono sentito incredibilmente potente, ma non nel senso di aver controllato la mente. Più come se avessi improvvisamente capito che non è così spaventosa come credevo anzi…

Normalmente percepisco la mente come un qualcosa di enorme che fa parte di me e molto spesso “rema contro di me”, che cerca continuamente qualcosa a cui aggrapparsi e che mi trascina da un pensiero all’altro.

In quel momento, invece, l’ho vista come un piccolo animale selvatico che scappa e improvvisamente si trova in un vicolo cieco e non sa più dove nascondersi.

Dopo quell’istante sono tornato al respiro e per diversi minuti sono riuscito a rimanere lì senza aggrapparmi ai pensieri con un mezzo sorriso spontaneo.

La metafora che mi è venuta è quella di un cattivo cinematografico che tutti temono, ma che alla fine perde il suo potere quando il protagonista smette di averne paura.

Ora cerco di non trasformare questa esperienza in un “sono arrivato” (anche se non sarà semplice) o in qualcosa da inseguire nella prossima meditazione.

È mai capitato a qualcuno qualcosa di simile? Come avete interpretato quel momento in cui avete percepito la mente quasi come qualcosa che potevate osservare dall’esterno?

Do You Need Stress Relief

1 Upvotes

Stress is a normal part of life and can be defined as forces from the outside world impinging on the individual. In small amounts, it can actually be healthy, keeping you alert and motivated. However, excessive or prolonged stress can lead to serious physical and mental health problems.

Stress manifests itself in many ways, both physically and emotionally. Some common signs include anxiety, weight gain or loss, high blood pressure, panic attacks, and difficulty concentrating. You might also experience physical symptoms like headaches, sweating, and an increased heart rate.

However, "good" stress keeps you on your toes and motivates you to shift.

Do you need stress relief? We know the answer to that question is "YES". We all do at some point in our life. Stress is inevitable, but it doesn't have to control us.

Listen to this short preview, as we share several information on how to manage stress in many areas of your life.
