@soulsings Thanks for this Soul, its really helpful and interesting :)
@dancingRainbow45 thank you for your kind words. In a way it works like a distraction that takes our mind off the problem. Mindfulness takes our mind off the problem as a problem and sees it as a flow of thoughts, not me thinking, but thoughts flowing through my mind. It is like going to the aquarium, you see the fish and dolphins floating around but you do not get wet.
@soulsings Thank you!
@Mellietronx you are welcome. I find the Mindfulness Sessions helpful to reach out to people and learn from each other. The schedule is in the Community Calendar https://www.7cups.com/home/communityCalendar.php
