Why You Should Learn Mindfulness Meditation
Why learn mindfulness meditation?
More satisfaction, less suffering, little boredom, be more alert, aware, with a calm mind and relaxed body, as you learn to not be driven by feelings and body drives and sensations. Your positives will improve, your negatives will weaken and may go away, and generally everything, your emotions, thinking, and bodily functions, will become more stable. As a bonus you will develop unconditional peace of mind.
The specifics are discussed below:
Generally as you do mindfulness meditation these ten things and anything you can experience will get better:
1) More Satisfaction-the good things will become more satisfying, so you will be less likely to over indulge and get addicted to things,
2) Less Suffering-the negative and painful things, you will face with less resistance and avoidance with less associated suffering
3) Little Boredom-what appears neutral, will become less boring and more interesting, with unexpected good experiences
4) More Aware , Alert, Awake and Zoned In- You will stay aware of what is happening right in the present moment rather than doing things unconsciously, being unaware, because you are auto pilot. You will do what you want and should be doing, rather than being zoned out, and you will see things as they really are not distorted by emotions and thinking. You will have less accidents, make fewer mistakes because you will be zoned in, rather than zone out.
5) Better Concentration- Improve your level or pin point focus, general attention, and short term memory
6) Calm and Stabilize your Mind- Still and quiet your mind so you are less driven by emotions, thinking and body sensations good ones like hunger or negative ones like pain
7) Stop Worrying about the Past and Future-Become aware of when you are ruminating, that thinking going around and around, getting nowhere, fueling your problems, because you are being driven by past experience and future fears, needs and concerns, and be able to pull your self back when you want to and need to, back to the present moment.
8) Weaken Fueling Feelings-Learn to deal with and eliminate troublesome emotions, thinking and body sensations, by developing new ideas, experience new realities or insights about them, and literally burn away their fueling feelings and sensations.
9) Mini Mental Vacations- Learn to become more alert when you are tired, more relaxed when stressed out and tense, by doing mini meditations you can use as a respite, a vacation while on the job, or any time, just to rest, relax and sleep better.
10) Peace of Mind without Conditions-When things are going well, but still things are still not just right, you have a sense of general ill ease, not being really sure of who you are and where you are going, for this you will get in touch with your original “self” and feel the associated peace of a quiet still mind that is based on no conditions.
