I can't post a photo of the students but this is the grandest room I which I have ever taught Mindfulness. It's the Octagon in the Queen's Building on the Queen Mary Campus. Two groups of lovely 2nd Year Psychology Students with their lecturers.

What's stopping us? 🤷🏻‍♀️ The #climatecrisis can provoke overwhelming emotions... Fear, anger, grief - and sometimes numbness or shutting down. If we’re not equipped to process these emotions, we will struggle to take the action needed. [1/4]

A huge thank you to Joe and Fanny Houseman (RIP) on whose upturned gravestone I sit Maransati most mornings as part of my walk around Tottenham Cemetery. Frosty these last few mornings. #maransati #meditation

Procrastination a student curse? I think Mindfulness coupled with Self-Worth Theory (Covington 84) has real potential. Currently developing practices for students at Queen Mary Uni London to test. I'll keep you posted. #procrastination #mindfulness

"The world is full of magic things, patiently waiting for our senses to grow sharper" W.B.Yeats giving us a good reason to practice "coming to our senses" love a good quote. #mindfulness #meditation #poetry

Always interesting to find research that confirms ones subjective experience. I know approaching discomfort practices have lessened resistance to my behaviour changes. I surprise myself by getting out to walk each day whatever the weather. Just less friction! www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

I really enjoyed this conversation with Professor Mark Williams, about living with intention, spending our “attention budget” wisely, the inner critic, and what it means to integrate mindfulness into our lives. @Blackwell's Bookshops in Oxford in October 2024. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/t...

My fav song from our concert on Sunday. Based on EE Cummings poem. "- how should tasting touching hearing seeing breathing any—lifted from the no of all nothing—human merely being doubt unimaginable You? (now the ears of my ears awake and now the eyes of my eyes are opened)" youtu.be/R0X2zZAmAG8?...

So impressed by Kat who has worked with us on the ATTEND study since her mid-teens www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

"It felt so healing and peaceful. Very special and I learned so much. Finally I know how to treat myself well" .. Lovely comment from a student on our last course. Must be something in this mindfulness lark! #mindfulness #meditation

I find myself reflecting on the hub of the Bhavachakra. The three drivers (poisons) of the wheel. Greed/Craving (Cockerel) Hatred (Snake) and Delusion/Ignorance (Pig). They seem to be extra busy right now.

I highly recommend this new book. After years of Vipassana I came to specifically sensing practices via MBSR. Now I know why it was so gently transformative. betterineverysense.com #ukmindfulness #mindfulness

As a cheerleader for mindfulness myself, I do worry about the stream of messages on SM that, although sent with good intent, have the collective effect of making me and I suspect many others, feel inadequate practitioners. The antithesis of mindful self acceptance.

Watched the film "Outrun" last night. Nora Fingscheidt directs the wonderful Saoirse Ronan who is on screen 99% of the time. Could argue it's a dramatic illustration of the role of "coming to our senses" in addiction recovery. "Sense Foraging" with weather, wind and waves. #mindfulness
