Re: Is using mindfulness cues cheating?

Thanks Jon,

Using a phone is a helpful suggestion but would be too intrusive in certain circumstances. It'll be interesting to see what others think.

Is using mindfulness cues cheating?

I'd just be interested in anyone's thoughts on this. Formal practice is fine but during a busy working day I can go for hours being caught up in what's going on and drift into automatic pilot mode. I know some people use cues (post it notes, bracelets etc) and I will probably start doing so but I ha...

Re: Mindfulness Audios - MP3

Hi Jon, I don't think there's any blame involved, it was a great idea - we just need to consider the legalities.

I will post the drive back to you.

Cheers all.

Re: Mindfulness Audios - MP3

Hi Vixine

I'm a bit of a technophobe I'm afraid!

Would it be OK if I post the drive to you and you can up-load it to dropbox?

If that's OK can you please PM me the address to send it to? Thanks.

Re: Mindfulness Audios - MP3

Hi everyone, I currently have this and it's a fantastic resource.

If anyone wants it just PM me and I will pass it on. I think the only condition set by Jon is that whoever receives it agrees to pass it to the next person who asks for it.

Many thanks to Jon for making this available.

Re: Depression

Hi Jenna, I'm sorry to hear how you are feeling. Gareth is spot on and I think it's worth remembering that the benefits you get from anything, including mindfulness, are related to the effort you put in. There are no quick fixes but you CAN get better. You might benefit from talking to your GP if yo...

Re: MBSR vs Traditional Buddhism

What an interesting post! In my humble view many religions have a core of wisdom but then other factors get added to the mix (superstition/social control/money etc) and the only safe thing for the baffled novice to do is hold on tight to your common sense. I'm guessing that the scientific basis of m...
