Every skill is translatable. Everything is practice for the next level you wish to take your life to. In moments of crisis (i.e. now), don't worry, you've been training for it your whole life - through every opportunity you've taken to pay attention, be compassionate, understand things better, and choose to de-escalate rather than react.
This episode wants you to understand...
- How mindfulness really works.
- Our biggest tools for handling challenges.
- Why we struggle and the tools we need to avoid the default response.
- Challenges can cause two highly ineffective responses: reactivity and repression. How mindfulness gives us the courage to choose neither and experience what's happening head-on.
- All challenges are neutral and non-threatening (except things where you actually might die - yes, once again, i.e. now), it's a matter of your mental and physically decision to find it grueling. Learn some techniques to hack that.
