Being Aware & Mindful Can Improve Your Life in Many Ways
One of the things I often recommend to friends, clients and listeners on my radio show is to be aware of what is happening around them - for many reasons, not the least of which is for their safety. There are other reasons to be aware or as Wil Dieck discusses in his book - being mindful. Mindful of yourself, your feelings, your emotions and much more.
I enjoyed how he explains mindfulness and how it impacts so many factors in your life. Once you have a clear idea of what mindfulness is and how it affects you - he clearly lays out how to improve your mindfulness, how to meditate and how to relax. I need a lot of help with learning to relax and there is a full chapter on relaxation.
Understand the difference between "being" and "doing". The chapter on emotional awareness is very helpful - also learning how to handle distractions. You will be amazed at how beneficial it is to learn to breath - and using deep breathing. We all have plenty of stress, anxiety and distractions. We can let these things derail us and create havoc in our lives, or we can understand how to increase our awareness and mindfulness. I think you will be amazed how much life can change and improve when you master these things in your life. The content in this book will help you to do that.
There are some editing issues but they shouldn't distract you from the meat of the message.
On being mindful...practice for a healthy happy life
I have been practicing yoga for the past 3 years but over the past few months I have been struggling to take myself to classes and I find that as I go into Shavasana my mind wanders away from the practice into what I will do when I leave. I have been in the Doing mode rather than in the Being mode!
This book has reminded me that I need to get back into that state of being mindful of my present. I guess I needed to be reminded of the practical things that I can do to bring myself back to where I was in my previous years of practicing yoga.
That I need to STOP (Stop, Take a Breath, Observe, Proceed). That is one thing that I have taken for granted and not done recently.
Quick read with great advice on living in the present
The primary message of Modern Mindfulness is to live in and fully experience the present. Worry and anxiety stem from stressing about the future, and depression often results from focusing on past mistakes. In our busy lives, we do a lot of things on âautopilotâ with our minds in one place and our bodies in another. Wil Dieckâs book teaches the reader how to instead be fully engaged in the present, shifting from âdoing modeâ into âbeing mode,â and experiencing life with the five senses. Some of his techniques include deep breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, visualization and walking mindfulness.
