Get Mindful

Changing the way we relate to our thoughts will have an impact not only on ourselves, but also on the people around us. This change can be challenging for some, even if it is a positive change. Cathrin and Lisa discuss the systemic aspects of mindful change.

Cathrin and Lisa discuss objectifying thoughts as a way to get out of them. Looking at your thoughts is much more helpful than looking through your thoughts. This helps us to let go of disfunctional thinking and move through the emotions associated with them.

Cathrin und Lisa diskutieren das "Okay-Sein" mit allen Emotionen, die hoch kommen. Ist es okay immer okay zu sein mit negativen Emotionen? Oder verteidigen wir dabei unser Recht unglücklich zu sein?

Cathrin and Lisa discuss the labeling of emotions. Although it's often helpful to label our thoughts and emotions, it can also create a subtle hanging on to that emotion. When working with emotions, we can drop all thoughts - including all labels - to let the emotion resume its normal "wave" pattern: It comes, it peaks, it subsides. And we breath into and through it. No thoughts, no labels.

Cathrin and Lisa discuss why it's important to communicate what you really want, not just a position you have taken. This requires us to dig deeply into ourselves to understand what motivates our desires. Understanding and communicating this helps us to have fulfilling relationships.

Cathrin and Lisa discuss introspection and communication. Communicating what you really want as opposed to a position you've taken, which probably isn't what you really want after all! The last episode in 2021. 

Cathrin und Lisa diskutieren warum es oft so schwierig ist, Verstandenes im Alltag zu integrieren. Nur weil wir intellektuell etwas verstanden haben, heißt nicht, dass wir immer in der Lage sind, das Verstandene auch zu leben.
