Mindfulness teaches me to be with myself. Self-care teaches me to fall in love with myself. From now on and for the rest of my life, I love myself, spoil myself, and have no rivals in love. This is the beginning of a love story with oneself. We have a long way to go, so embrace the future affectionately!
I used to be a slave of my thoughts and it is practically a kind of self-torture ¨C whichever way causes more excruciating pain, that is the way my thoughts would go. I used to be unaware and unconscious, thinking that I was my thought. Now gradually, I¡¯ve become aware and start to watch my thoughts. I¡¯m able to catch myself whenever my thoughts begin to run again.
Although light meals aren¡¯t exhilarating and don¡¯t stimulate taste buds, but when you eat with a mindful heart, they indeed bring a different kind of simplicity. I am satisfied with one bowl, and I feel peaceful after the meal. Mindful eating is not only eating ¨C it is essentially a process of restoring awareness and harmonizing the heart.
I gained a preliminary understanding of mindfulness and self-compassion after this course. I also received a lot of help from daily practice. Especially when I was depressed, I can calm myself down softly, without falling into self-denial for too long. Teacher Ting Li¡¯s voice is warm and powerful; all her responses are very meticulous and loving. Thank you for your company for two months!
It's halfway through the eight-week class of mindfulness. At first, I know nothing about mindfulness. Now, I can sit down and meditate naturally and even bring mindfulness to walking, exercise, eating, etc. It's amazing.
Yolanda: For me, body scan is an opportunity to rest. It allows me to learn to be kind to myself, and give myself compassion in my busy and exhausting life.
