One Minute Mindfulness - Finding Freedom From Old Patterns

In this teaching, Geoff Bell-Devaney discusses ways that we can shift our old inner patterns that are no longer serving us. He explains how we can learn to recognize and work with these unconscious ways of being and ultimately discover a more empowered and present life.

Transcript

The first step you can take to begin responding to life and freeing yourself from your old dysfunctional patterns is to simply bring your attention to your body as it begins the process of reacting.

Silently become aware of the tightening and the speeding up inside.

Patiently watch the resistance and discomfort grow.

Do your best to just take note of any thoughts that arise and keep in mind that it is easy to become debilitated by overthinking yourself into a state of despair.

Silently observe yourself and try to understand what is happening.

Notice how your old pattern is trying to trap you and how you are reacting to it.

And remember that you can respond to any situation from a place of greater balance and clarity.

It just takes practice to be able to do this.

Over time,

You'll begin to feel more comfortable responding in this way.
