a few weeks in to reviving my practice, feels like front row tickets for a daily tour of personal discomforts and dormant grievances. ironically watching this dismal show buys me a little lightness throughout the day

I could sit in this sun-spot
And empty my mind

I've been thinking about the power of visualization lately. It is great to have goals and dreams, but I think it's more likely you reach them if you can really visualize yourself the way you are working to be.

I have started meditating on these visualizations, and it has really started to motivate me.

@Beatlesandworms I try to do this too, and I have a vision board for my goals for the next few years. Just helps me focus on my dreams and the fact that they are attainable if I am strategic

sivy,

Anyone have good resources for developing a sitting #meditation practice? I’m completely distracted by my posture while trying to breathe… but as someone with #ADHD I’m distracted by a lot of things. 😆

Trying to develop a practice that gets me out of my head and back into the here and now in my body, I’ve really been enjoying the resources from Plum Village https://plumvillage.org/

@sivy If I'm sitting in a chair while meditating I've found it helps if I focus on the contact that my feet have with the ground, and how that feels I can slowly work my thoughts up my body to each bit of contacts its making with the chair, or the breeze, or whatever is touching me. Everything says "focus on your breath" but that might not work for you.

Anxiety kicking in despite a good day. Time for #meditation then sleep

@CarolynStirling Guided meditation focussing on the breath really works for me, especially as I feel the anxiety in my chest a lot. It’s good to breathe properly

@Callalily Well, I’m no longer anxious, but I only slept four hours before secondary insomnia kicked in 😬

myoe,

Why do we see very few people from minorities in #meditation circles? Is #zazen a white upper middle class-only activity?

I don’t think so. But because #capitalism makes life so hard for those minorities, they aren’t granted the chance to participate in those meditation sessions, as they have other, more urgent, things to struggle with in the first place.

Therefore, as a monk, vowing to liberate all sentient beings means to offer equal opportunities to everyone to practice #zen and this can’t be achieved under capitalism. Only an #anarchist society, where both #liberty and #equality are guaranteed, can allow that.

I know it sounds cruel but the attempt to give equality to all ends up giving equality to none.

Heh, I keep thinking of that one demotivational poster that's a picture of a sinking ship and says something like "the purpose of your life may be to serve as a warning to others."

Too many don't survive. That's a big part of why I'm pursuing mental health work right now-- knowing what it's like and how this works, I can warn others of the traps and maybe help them cope.

This is the toxic nature of kyriarchy and capitalism. In order to survive, I had to stop listening to the messages the world is telling to people like me, and build on my own values.

Believing in equal rights means believing in the equal value of human lives. We all have our strengths and weaknesses, and we all have important things to learn from each other. Segregating people by ranking them, pushing them into brutal competitions where some are entitled to live like kings and others are less than bugs, cultivates incredible brutality that gets taken for granted.

I keep remembering that quote from the cult documentary I watched the other day. There's the kids that get broken, and then there's the kids who graduate... "Succeeding" in this system often requires some heavy-duty moral failing that isn't recognized as such.

Risiken der Achtsamkeit - krank durch Meditation?

Bei manchen kann intensive Meditation psychische Leiden verursachen. Das überwiegend positive Bild von Meditation führt dazu, dass es für Betroffene schwierig ist, bei Nebenwirkungen gehört zu werden, wie SWR-Recherchen zeigen.
