How to Be Mindful in Everyday Life | 25 Ways to Practice Mindfulness

[@debbiewilder4738]

Why would you everyday want to do that like?Why would you want to watch yourself?Open a door every day? Why would you want to be feeling your sheet every day. I could understand having times in your life that you want to be that conscience.But but you could be using your brain for so much more than turning a doorknob LO.L start a business or something. I might be missing the point like there's a time in a place for this.Maybe that's what you're saying I agree.If that's the case.

[@iamvanessae]

The purpose isn't to actively think about everything we do. At that point, I don't think we'd truly be living. It's more about being conscious of the things we're doing versus living mindlessly. The point of this video is to share very practical ways we can train ourselves to do that. It's like learning how to drive. At first, you're actively checking the mirrors, making sure you're staying in your lane, you're thinking about how you're going to turn, etc. but one day you master driving and it becomes effortless. The same goes for living mindfully. I hope that clears things up😊

[@linaulina3058]

Mindfulness - such an easy answer ☺️

[@Lost_S]

if your focus is purely productivity, when you’re in auto pilot mode decisions become automatic and bad habits have an oportunity to invade your life, do everything with intention and focus and you’ll find it all so much more joyfull and efficient

[@KatzeDerNacht22]

I love how this was pinned. I've never wanted to watch myself turn a doorknob so bad before.

[@lovely_bean]

Also, mindfulness is great for people who are head and no body. Like people who want to transition out of Maladaptive daydreaming or other dissociating states.

[@-SimonRiley]

Any tips for ADHD brains? It feels like no matter how much I try I could never stop thinking. Some say that I should just stop stressing over “not thinking” and let go but that doesn't work cuz for someone who has ADHD overthinking is the default mode

[@fatimasiddiqui1585]

@@-SimonRiley try practicing when you are in the least stressful situation. For example, right before falling asleep if you feel most peaceful in the nighttime. For me, it's easiest to get into the present moment when I'm showering, going to bed, walking in nature, and after work when I am most relaxed. Once you conquer this, you can more easily start using it in stressful situations as well. For your info, I don't have ADHD, but I've struggled with maladaptive daydreaming my whole life due to having a 'boring' life.

[@-SimonRiley]

@@fatimasiddiqui1585 OMG yes, maladaptive day dreaming is a huge obstacle in my day-to-day life. It can be triggered by literally anything. Like if I solve a very difficult maths problem I go into my head thinking of a whole story line of this poor boy whom everybody thought was a POS goes on to become a remarkable scientist and receives the Noble Prize lol. Before I realize I've gone into overthinking mode it's too late. I will certainly give a try to whatever you said, most likely it's not gonna work but hope for the best 🤞🏻

This is so peaceful. I'm an anxious person and tend to be tense even when I'm just sitting. I'll clench my jaw, hunch my shoulders and my thoughts keep racing even though there's nowhere to be. In the end, I can't even remember what I did or ate or drank. I hope this year I am able to slow down at least a bit, and be more present. I live in a noisy city in India which seems to be always under construction. So many people rushing, rushing, rushing. I still hope I am able to find pockets of quiet. Thank you for the video!

I find with reading, i skim when i start thinking...I always go back + re read. I found a few years ago when i drank from a cup, I'd watch the patterns forming on top (when i run out of milk, black coffee)...It was interesting. With driving, silence is nice sometimes...Rather than autmatically picking my fave song + blasting it...And i notice i tense as well sometimes. I've been eating in peace for a few years now...Silence. It is nice. The ohone is a big one, since i got data i don't sit in silence for an hour wnymore before i do anything for the day...I want to go back to that. Convos - Since doing a counselling course has helped me with my active listening skills...Silence in a convo - I embrace it now...Used to feel the need to fill it up. In the bath, i like my ears under + breathing + listening for my heart beat.

[@kalebc2134]

Great video, and it’s really cool how you consistently respond to comments even a year + later! My question is: I’m relatively new to meditation, but my biggest struggle with it is the idea that I feel like I won’t ever be able to think if I live this way. I fully acknowledge that I live way too much in the past and the future, but I also feel like it’s fun sometimes to reminisce about the past when I see something that reminds me of a fun memory, or I find it important to plan for major future events or anticipate with excitement something fun I have coming up. I assume you don’t completely cut these things out of your life 100%, so how do you live primarily in the present while still occasionally thinking about the future or the past? Do you set aside a time during the day to think about the future/past? Or do you just let it happen sometimes when those things come to mind, and at other times say “I need to be present right now” and ignore it?

[@iamvanessae]

I had this question too when I started on this mindfulness journey. What I learned is that you can remain present even when you visit a memory of the past or plan for something in the future. The key is to not get lost in your thoughts about the past or future because when we start worrying, obsessing, ruminating, etc. we're no longer present. I hope this makes sense, but if not, here's a wonderful resource I think you'll find very helpful: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y4nHpnuMZbGia5Ysi=MnkpFkD8_mGrrH0R

But what if I forgot my plans for the day, if I focus so much on everyday little things,

[@iamvanessae]

It's all about finding balance. See the big picture of your day, but be present in the little things as you do them. I know it can seem overwhelming at first, but trust me, it gets easier the more you practice it. I always say it's very similar to learning how to drive. At first, it seems like too much...looking at the mirrors, staying in our lane, watching out for others, the stop lights, the signs, etc. but with practice, we learn to integrate everything and drive effortlessly. Keep practicing, you've got this❤
