Mindfulness For Busy People

The way that we start our day sets the tone for the rest of the day. In this first lesson, we come to understand how to get out of the right side of the bed every time. This is a gentle introduction to paving a life of positivity, fulfilment and joy.

As our day moves forward, we can sometimes hit a lull or dead spot where our energy drops. In today's lesson, we undergo a tactical and restorative meditation to reset and recharge. This practice can also be reffered to as a ‘snoozitation.’

Our sleep time is incredibly important and a time in which we process much that goes on in our waking day. Today, we undergo a therapeutic practice that is the perfect tonic to wrap up a busy or stressful day and set up the perfect tomorrow. You may like to have your journal ready, to jot down some of your reflections at the beginning of the practice.

Sometimes our head can be heavy with thoughts, often with the same type of thoughts and dialogues repeating over and over. These can be referred to as ‘mindfalls,’ and can make it impossible for us to get through anything. In today's lesson, we learn practical techniques to help us escape these thoughts and take the weight off our mind.

From time to time, we can find ourselves being creatively uncreative. We become busy fools, getting on with everything else but the task in hand. In today's practice we look at where this procrastination can come from, before being led through a powerful visualisation where we say goodbye to these bandits of time, forever.

It is thought that we are all on this planet to learn and to evolve. As a result, sometimes we encounter adversity. Today, we come to understand how adversity can be a blessing in disguise and learn the powerful tools for dealing with, and welcoming, such resistance.

To help us on our path, we can call on silent guides for advice and direction. In today's practice we bring in three essenses or qualities, to help steer us in the right future trajectory. Each of us has the capacity to choose the nature and scope of such guidance. It ultimately, makes our path less lonely and more fun.

Just imagine a perfect life. Now imagine a life that is more than perfect. The latter concept is a little harder to answer, but today's meditation will begin to show you how. As our thoughts begin to manifest in the world around us, this is a particularly invaluable practice.

In today's practice we will continue exploring how to bring our wildest dreams into fruition. Today's guided visualisation is a metaphorical journey, that contains no instruction. Instead, this visualisation is resonant of a parable and will gently lead you to look at the choices available to you in your life and to subtly alter your course.

Together, we will explore how we can use our sleep time to explore the most optimal parts of our life. If you have trouble getting to sleep, or if you awaken in the early hours, today's practice is ideal for you. This practice is split into two parts and contains a visualisation that will help you drift off into deep slumber which is often laced with important dreams.

In today's practice we explore how to meditate with our eyes open, to tap into our creative intuition and achieve a flow state. When we enter the eyes open meditative state, two things happen. Firstly, our focus and creativity increase and secondly, time expands to fit the task at hand.

I am not a practicing Buddhist but some of the philosophies behind Buddhism ooze with common sense. One of them is called the Eightfold Noble Path. This visualisation takes you on a journey around that path. This practice is a precursor to achieving a meditative state throughout the whole day and in doing so, perform to the best of our ability at all times.

This visualisation takes you on a journey of the mind to help you make your waking days more mindful. These visualisations came to me while I was in deep meditation. As a result, as you tune into them, you will find it easier and easier to access this state too.

When we meditate each day, we find that mindfulness leads naturally to a state of timefulness. In this blissful state, we find that we not only get more done with less time, but that external events also seem to happen exactly at the right time.

In the same way that the practice of mindfulness leads us naturally into a state of timefulness, timefulness naturally leads us to being able to demonstrate kindfulness. When we get more things done in less time, this gives us more time to not only be kind to others but to be kind to ourselves.

If we spend our days in a state of busy-ness, we can miss the signs and serendipities that can help us the most. These signs can often come along in bizarre and unexpected manners. Today's enlivening visualisation practice will help you spot them.

Today's practice focuses on the ability to breathe in a mindful and restorative manner. This visualisation explores the most basic form of meditation, which is, to use the breath. This visualisation concludes with a simple exercise that helps tone the tummy muscles and is also the key to slowing down time.

Today's lesson places emphasis on the practice of mindful eating. We will be guided through a profound visualisation to bring this concept to life. This visualisation can be done with eyes closed or open and with imaginary or real morsels of food. Listen to it at either end of the day, once with the eyes open with food, and once imagining you are actually eating.

Today's lesson focuses on the principle of mindful movement, namely walking. Today's visualisation can be listened to while out walking or just by imagining you are out walking. Just like the Mindful Eating visualisation, it’s worth trying it both ways for a bit of fun.

From time to time, we can become lost and bewildered, questioning our purpose and direction. In this practice we learn how best to move forward, with purpose. You are always, only one meditation away from the answer. Together we delve into building clarity on what our purpose truly is.

In today's practice, we aim to become more mindful about mindfulness itself. As we come to know our mind better, we can better utilise the time and effort we invest in our endeavours. As such, we will become able to make a greater deal of quick and accurate decisions, opening the door to an abundance of opportunities. In today's visualisation practice, you can lie down or sit up, as you are guided to re-connect with the Earth Plane and create a foundation for the coming days.

If you feel a lack or that something is missing from your life, this visualisation will connect you with the essence of what you need right now. This practice will connect us with the essence of what it is that we are most strongly seeking. Today, we will say goodbye to being needy and say hello to being worth it.

There is probably not a single person alive who has made a poor decision and afterwards wished that they had trusted their gut instinct. This next visualisation activates your gut mind and re-kindles the communication between it and your conscious brain.

Today we explore the heart-mind. From our heart centre, we can radiate warmth (and healing) to anyone else's heart, in the past, present and future. When we live a life where we beam out nothing but unconditional love, all that we love naturally gravitates towards us.

Today, we look at our Throat Chakra. If we are prevented from speaking our truth or expressing our feelings verbally, it can lead to an overthinking mind, sadness, and bodily responses such as sore throats and coughs. Today, we consciously become mindful of the nature and sounds of our words. We are essentially, learning a new relationship with our throat.

It is part of the illusion that our thoughts are generated inside our head. A more accurate picture is that our brain is both the receiver and generator of thoughts. In today's visualisation, we will be shown how to know our minds in a whole new way, and in doing so, make better and wiser decisions.

Our brains are transducers that connect us with our past and future thoughts. In today's lesson, we explore how to tap into our lower mind sensors to establish if an idea is worth running ahead with or not. You will also find out how to tap into future memories to help you in the present moment.

Today, we take things further and deeper, as we look at how all of our mind centers have access to the superconsciousness. We are all connected by one field of consciousness. Our inner dialogue disconnects us from it. Together, let us discover how to re-connect permanently.

Once we were all one. Now we are separate. In today's visualisation, we explore the oneness in which superconsciousness was formed. In this practice, you may simply sit back and relax as Tom guides you on a cosmic journey back to where you came from, so that you can step forward with a new vision for you and the world.

In this final session, we will reflect on each of our powerful and individual journeys over the last 30 days. This practice of reflection will give us profound insights into the new opportunities and ways of life that are well within our reach. Together, we will undertake a special visualisation where lessons of the course will come full circle and we explore reflection as an enlivening and empowering superconscious activity.
