S0 Ep 3: The Importance of Mindfulness to Awareness

Mindfulness is the key to awareness Being mindful is not something you can do once and then neglect. It requires constant check-ins and considerations to be taken. Mindfulness is the conscious awareness of your thoughts, feelings, actions, and intention – here and now, in the present. You gain recognition of your inner mindset/headspace/psyche self, which lets you better connect your conscious mind, subconscious mind, and ego. Being mindful, in a nutshell, is ultimately being aware of you. Awareness of the now changes The moment is constantly changing. These questions are some keys to recognizing awareness and awakening mindfulness: ·        What am I thinking? ·        How am I feeling? ·        What am I feeling? ·        How do I expect today to be? ·        What can I do to take control today? Then, throughout my day, I re-ask some or all these questions. That allows me to keep aware of myself as change happens throughout the day. Nobody is perfect When I am having a good day - and am totally conscious of my thoughts, feelings, actions, and intentions - I can get a lot of work done and do some awesome things. However, when I am having a bad day – and I am overwhelmed by either happenings directly impacting me and/or world news and information – this is challenging. If I absorb too much of that negativity into my subconscious taking back conscious control becomes that much more challenging. Nobody is perfect – or – everybody is perfectly imperfect. As such, nobody is always conscious of their thoughts and feelings. Mindlessness happens – and there are times to just embrace it and let go. https://mjblehart.com [email protected] https://www.instagram.com/mjblehart/ https://twitter.com/MJBlehart https://www.facebook.com/blehartmj/ mjblehart.medium.com Cover artist Fe Mahoney: [email protected] and https://www.etsy.com/shop/TaliasInspirations
