How wonderful to be able to listen to speakers like Jon Kabat Zinn while sitting in the comfort of my own home and to receive such valuable information at no cost. Thank you very much for all your work and sharing.

Why isn't this stuff being taught in every school? What good is education if you can't live in peace with your own mind?

"Healing = coming to terms with things as they are."

[@TanyaRadic]

My country dad practiced this all his life . He wasn't educated . He knew . " He said, Just pay attention to what you're doing!"

Every moment of your life is an opportunity. It is a moment you can embrace. It is a moment you can learn from others misfortunes. It is the essence of who you are. But It is always a choice of who you choose to become. So choose wisely my friend. Each and every moment you live is, knowing the true life giving force of the heart and this light from within. Life is just an accumulation of your life’s moments and the choices only you know how to live with. So live well my friend, live well.

I was watching something on you tube when I fell asleep and woke up at 4am to this playing instead. It's caught my attention and now I'm watching it 😂 Its very interesting and I definitely needed to hear it 🙂

[@GreasyBaconMan]

Even when you think you have a good list of things wrong with you “There’s more right with you than there's what’s is wrong with you” ponder that.

The real meditation practice is how you live life moment by moment. Wow. Mindfulness is the attitude toward stress and what's happening. We are much bigger than anything that happens to us

[@MusixPro4u]

Thought experiment: What would happen to the world if every human being on earth would do 10 mins of mindful meditation per day? The outcome would most certainly be incredible.

Main great points:

[@vamp1refps]

Wow, I remember when I focused so much on the past that I let it happen again by manifesting the negativity I have already experienced

[@TINA7HEAVEN]

When he said, the future is here in this moment. I was sad. Then I viewed tomorrow morning with a new lens, and it's going to be magical. 🙏 🐱

The key is to not resist the resistance, to not fear the fear. “Under the sword lifted high there is hell making you tremble, but go forth, and there is the land of bliss”

[@lelandholiday1761]

I suffer from depression from Traumatic events in my early life and later in my adult years. I've never seen depression from this perspective after watching this. Ive always coped with alcohol and Prozac to numb my pain. I'm so glad I came across this video. It's giving me new hope . 👍

[@Paul-dw2cl]

“We can spend enormous amounts of our time and energy absorbed in the past- have you noticed that? Just incredible preoccupations about who’s to blame for why it’s like this.” That hit me like a bullseye. That’s exactly what I was doing exactly when he said that.

[@markfrank0924]

Even if there is no intention of practicing any of this, it's good to be reminded that much of what we think about, fear, dread, or ponder we can do nothing about. The past and future are things of which we have no control. How settling it is that the only thing we have is now.

[@iwnunn7999]

Learning this in the early years of my education would have made a world of difference in the trajectory of my life. No regrets though because all we have is NOW!

[@karencooper4762]

Every thing he is saying is 💯 true. We’re walking Zombies until we truly wake up to who we really are🌻🌻🌻

Jon Kabat-Zinn changed my life. I read "Full Catastrophe Living" many years ago but back then I was in my early thirties and really hadn't lived. Now that I'm 60 and have experienced pain and loss and am living with a job that is stressful to the max, I decided to reread the book and it was mind-blowing. I felt he understood every bit of what I have been going through. Just feeling understood was a big thing, but the practices he outlines are incredibly helpful. I urge everyone to read this book.
