    A contemplative practice with Buddhist roots, mindfulness is "the awareness that arises from paying attention, on purpose, in the present-moment, non-judgmentally." Practicing mindfulness can be an effective adjunct in treating psychological disorders such as depression, anxiety, and addiction. But have we gone too far with mindfulness? Recent books on the topic reveal a troubling corruption of mindfulness practice for commercial gain, with self-help celebrities hawking mindfulness as the next "miracle drug." Furthermore, common misunderstanding of what mindfulness really is seems to be fueled by a widespread cultural trend toward narcissism, egocentricity, and self-absorption. Thomas Joiner's Mindlessness chronicles the promising rise of mindfulness and its perhaps inevitable degradation. Giving mindfulness its full due, both as a useful philosophical vantage point and as a means to address various life challenges, Joiner mercilessly charts how narcissism has intertwined with and co-opted the practice to create a Frankenstein's monster of cultural solipsism and self-importance. He examines the dispiriting consequences for many sectors of society (e.g., mental health, education, politics) and ponders ways to mitigate, if not undo, them. Mining a rich body of research, Joiner also makes use of material from popular culture, literature, social media, and personal experience in order to expose the misuse of mindfulness and to consider how we as a society can back away from the brink, salvaging a potentially valuable technique for improving mental and physical wellbeing.

    If you just finished your favorite snack bar while working at your office desk without even knowing how it tasted, this guide is meant for you. What some people call multitasking is usually mindlessness. You are eating your meal while checking your email, and you are exercising while talking on the phone. You may think you are doing two things at a time, but actually you are not because you are ignoring one activity for the sake of other, and you are not giving your full attention to any of the two activities. The result is as expected. You don't get the most out of both the activities. Eating while doing your work interferes with digestion, and you begin to suffer from various health issues. Since you do not give your full attention to the work, you tend to make mistakes and miss out on important points. So, you compromise your health, and you perform mediocre work. In fact your life just goes by, and you don't even know what happened to all those years! So, what is the solution here? The solution is to replace mindlessness with mindfulness. Not only will this have a positive effect on your health but it will also improve your work performance and relationships. This guide is meant for those people who would like to improve their health and life in general by practicing mindfulness. So, let's begin and find out what mindfulness is, how you can practice it during meditation, and how you can introduce it in your daily activities as well. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Have you ever arrived at work and realize that you don't remember any of the car ride there? Have you ever finished a bag of popcorn and you barely remember opening it? Most people have had moments like this. This is known as mindlessness or autopilot. This causes a buildup of depression, anxiety, reactivity, and stress. It has been proven that the more you let your mind wander, and go on autopilot, the less happy you are. This brings us to mindfulness. Mindfulness is literally the exact opposite of mindlessness. It is the act of waking from autopilot and taking control of your attention. With mindfulness, you are keeping a moment to moment awareness of everything going on around you; your body, thoughts, sensation, feelings, and environment. It also means you are non-judgmental. When you start paying attention you can't judge your thoughts or feelings. You have to be impartial to it all. Mindfulness is a great practice that can improve anybody's quality of life. Mindfulness has been around for centuries. An easy way to explain the background of mindfulness is Buddhism. What we know as mindfulness comes from the meditation practices of the Buddhists, around 2500 years ago. They used the meditation to reach inner peace, unlock potential, grow their concentration, and intellectual and spiritual development. Hinduism was old when Buddha was born. Mindfulness had already been a part of the Hindu ways and teaching. Buddha used mindfulness as his core philosophy in his teachings. He taught that life revolved around it, and explained what it meant for everyday life. Buddha had lots of people around him that recorded his teachings, unlike Jesus. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    For over a hundred and fifty years, the rarest and most valuable substance in the solar system has been mined from the only location where it exists in significant quantity: Jupiter's largest moon, Ganymede. For all of this time, the remote mining outpost has been serviced by clone slaves who are drugged into mindlessness, and all of it has been monitored, controlled, and administered by the artificial intelligence known as Prinox. But what happens when a failed rescue mission causes a small band of escaped clones to begin questioning their lives, their society, and their very existence?

    In 10% Happier, Dan Harris takes listeners on his journey to adopt meditation and practice mindfulness. The story begins with Harris chronicling a personal panic attack on national television while he was filling in as a News Reader for a colleague. According to the Nielsen ratings data, over five million saw his panic attack, which was the result of an extended period of what Harris calls "mindlessness", where he was focused on professional advancement and adventure. Dan Harris began working at ABC News at 28 years old. When he joined the ABC News team, he was easily the youngest anchor there. Harris describes the ABC News environment as highly competitive and fast-paced. He had always been a worrier and found that being insecure drove him to accomplish his goals. As a young person surrounded by big personalities, he had to work hard to prove himself. To compensate for his youth, he pitched stories constantly, worked constantly, and missed many important family and friend events. He was also highly self-critical. ungekürzt. Language: English.
