Effect on Emotions

Mindfulness has helped me to be aware of what my emotions actually are. Up until a few years ago, before I started getting into personal development, I think my vocabulary for emotions was very limited.

I thought in the beginning, maybe it was because English is not my first language. Maybe I just hadn't learned the words. But I've also not used the words.

I actually just looked up the wheel of emotions where they break down the six core emotions into all the sub emotions and then it splits up from there.

I looked at this chart and looked at the words and I've only used a handful of those words.

So for me, the first step was learning the vocabulary.

The journaling that I do has helped me reflect on those things.

Thoughts on Breathing

Breathing is not consciously part of my mindfulness practice.

Effect on Emotions

Mindfulness is such an incredible tool to use to being observant and aware of our emotions. When we have a deeper understanding of our emotions, which I feel mindfulness has helped me do, we can really understand our emotions better.

It's given me a much deeper understanding of what I'm feeling and how to be present with whatever emotion I'm experiencing.

Thoughts on Breathing

Breathing is the greatest gift because it reminds us that we're alive and that we're here and that we're breathing and so, therefore, we're alive.

I highly recommend people connect with their breath whether they're sitting in meditation or you need to just stop while you're sitting at your desk working and take a couple of deep breaths in and out. It's the greatest anchor, it regulates.

Effect on Emotions

To me, mindfulness equals self-awareness. When you are self-aware, even when things are not going the way that you want, [it's important] that you don't get too hung up and you are not having emotional ups and downs.

Thoughts on Breathing

I meditate once every two or three days and I empty my mind and just focus on my breathing.

Because of my martial arts training, breathing is a big part of what I do. [Breathing is important] even when you're speaking & communicating, using your voice, projecting from the diaphragm.

Bullying Story

I was bullied every week [during school years]. One day I was in the cafeteria. I was eating my lunch that my mom had made for me.

This kid came over and grabbed my hair and yanked my head back. He yelled at me, “why are you looking at me like this”. I wasn't looking at him. He said, “you wanna fight?”

I was a skinny little guy of 110 pounds and I didn't want to fight. So he had his friends with him and he dragged me by the hair, out of the cafeteria, all the way out to the playground area.

This happened in front of a lot of people because it was lunchtime. Then he beat the crap out of me. He had me on the ground and was kicking me. Then he yelled, “don't you look at me again.”

Then he made some racist comments and walked away. I was crying and there were bruises and blood.

I was so afraid. I went home to my mom and she asked me why I got into fights. I didn't even want to explain.

I was getting beat up for no reason. I didn't know the language and I had no friends. There was a lot of resentment and a lot of anger. It was a very difficult time.
