Mindfulness for Life – with Mark Williams
Excellent video, thank you!
Great talk.
That is lovely! I also really like mindfulness. ?
For my mindfulness meditation I have been loving a lot of #sriavinashdotv at the moment.
I find Sri Avinash's talks so uplifting. ??
Not had the opportunity to attend a live event, however following listen to this YouTube today which was recommended by a mindfulness group class. I found it inspiring and noticed my understanding opened that little bit further.
This was fascinating and delivered in a very down to earth way. Thank you.
Thank you….. on the app store there's a free app called Headspace, I use this to help.
Uncanny resemblance to Richard Dawkins's voice
brilliant!
?
Excellent presentation. Thank!
What a boring pretentious man.
Could have been cut down to 15 minutes.
I am trying my best but to meditate with a high level of anxiety and some depression IT JUST STIRS UP MY ANXIETY !!! I COULD STAND STILL FOR 2 MINUTES AND THEN FOR 7 MINUTES AND HAD TO STOP BEFORE IT GOT MUCH WORSE !! God !! what a suffering !!
thank you, it was a treat to listen to him talk.
Great
I think long lecture can be counter productive, the same thing could have been said in a quarter of the time.
I praxtice one hour a day no excuses, usually 1hr20mins and I love what it does, always feel happy which is really worth it, zero stress just happy :)))
Great post.
For me, and I'm sure many others, the very idea of showing self compassion is quite a radical idea.
We are extremely hard on ourselves despite not choosing the cards we are dealt, for better or worse 🙂
I am just getting into the concept of Mindfulness and this example video made it so easy and rewarding…I have never done anything like this before but afterwards I honestly felt calmer and more restful…It was late evening so it has helped me settle down for bed…. I certainly believe practicing this exercise will be a life changing experience …Thank you so much for posting your video….
To the camera operator: Please don't play with the zoom (13:00). Very distracting / annoying.
