Headspace - Exercise For The Quiet Mind

Headspace. Thanks to Ernie Svenson for turning me on to Headspace and the benefits of mindfulness and meditation. We have been hearing a lot lately about mindfulness and its benefits for our busy lives. If you pray, you are probably already familiar with the mind quieting power of prayer. Mindfulness and meditation are not the practices popularized in the Sixties when some of us grew up. For ten minutes a day, you can quiet the busy, busy speeding anxieties and problems that most of us deal with all the time. Amazingly, these little ten minute intervals can serve as a constant reminder that we don't have to be worrying all the time, or stressing about this or that. In fact, I have just started and I am already feeling the benefits during the day. I am much more able to go to a quiet place, no matter what the hubbub is around me. Turn your mind inward, and be a spectator of your life. You might find that wisdom is a tangible thing that you can call on whenever you like. The best part is that it takes no effort. In fact, you just let life come to you, and you accept things for what they are. Get your head in a good place. Practice mindfulness.
