Heyo, heart I hope everyone doing well.

Today, I want to focus and discuss about Curiosity.

Curiosity is about deep learning. So, it makes sense to be mindfule to be curious.

"The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing."- Einstein

If you're curious about anything or some thing, you would want to explore. You would want to learn more and more about it. You would ask lot of questions to explore the depth of the thing you're curious about.

You might have many questions about various things in the enironment or yourself. There might be questions like, "Why do I feel this way?" etc. Bringing curiosity to your mindfulness practice is really helpful. Infact, the moment you start being curious, you start being mindful as well. You start paying attention and focus. To notice what's happening without any judgment.

There could be thousands of questions you might have in mind or ask. So, ask yourself a simple question and investigate about it

Fee your curiosity and see what you explore.Practice being curious about your own thoughts, happening around you, stuffs in your enviornment etc.

One or two things you're curious about?

Let's practice curiosity and get one step ahead towards mindfulness.

Footnote: My apology as I'm unable to respond to the thoughts you share with me in daily check-in. I read your thoughts and appreciate it. You all are valuable to me and this community. I'm bit busy these days, so once I'll get bit of time, I'll share my thoughts about yours. Till the time, keep discussing and sharing your wonderful inputs. You're awesome. Thank you <3 - Obs

Nice post! One thing I am curious about is philosophy :D I currently study it at school and I think it is super interesting, I've learnt lots and it is a subject to get curious about. It's fun to challenge the views some philosophers have and I like playing devil's advocate and trying to suggest different solutions. It's going well for me at the moment.

Take care Obs <3

@ASilentObserver Hi Obs! heart How are you? I hope you are having a lovely Friday! laugh I also hope that things are able to settle down soon so that you may have more time to relax and rest! heart I really love this post as I am always curious and asking questions (or using the Socratic method) and/or researching often helps me learn, understand, and become even more curious.

One or two things you're curious about?
I am really curious as to why I am always exhausted, and I am curious as to how I can improve my health and life overall so that I can be energized, healthy, and fit again.

hi SaimaK, I like to resppond because I asked myself same question some time ago. it can be helpful to look at what you are doing on a daily basis. Is there too much work involved for your brain (constant thinking on a high activity level), are you doing physical work which your body actually cannot take and drains you, sleep patterns are also very important.

@amiablePeace77 Hi Peace! heart Thank you so much for responding to me! I definitely have a combination of too much work for my brain and not-so-perfect sleep patterns. That is really great to think about as I did not consider that before! Thank you so much! smileyheart

Curiosity - interesting topic. Doing it mindfully - really interesting topic.

I live by - if you want to know, go find out. I grew up with public television -- so I watched so much nature shows, history shows, politic shows, and such... it just seems normal to be a sponge for information. Which is probably why I"m a Jane of All Trades - Master of None kinda' gal.

It's more of making time to pursue the curiosity that I have trouble with at the moment.... so I guess that's where I need to be mindful. Make time to remain curious.

I like this post a lot because I believe curiosity is not only very important but it helps us to stay interested and learn.

Recently I told my husband to something in a particular way (he helped with housework). Lateron I was repeating the situation in my head and curiosity came up why I really said it, was it just to help or was it also because I expected a certain standard which I wanted to be fulfilled. Curiosity about ourselves can also give us more insight view.

Hey all. I'm new to 7 cups, but just wanted to say hi to all my fellow mindfulness people. Today is a good day for me. Trying to enjoy some of the little things.

The most efficient way for people to implement change! I'm curious about bottom up change since it's random and anti-fragile compared to top down change which has lots of rules and is fragile, therefore suceptible to breaking and errors.

I'm also curious where and when I will meet the man I'm seeking for a loving, monogamous, comitted relationship that meets both of our goals in life and where we can share giving and receiving love!
