TrustMindfulnessMeditationWhereverYouGoThereYouAre Jon Kabat-Zin recognizes the stability that trust brings. More concretely, when we place our trust in a process, person, or our own selves it provides us with security, comfort, and guidance.
To reap the benefits of mindfulness, we need to have trust in our abilities to:
- Observe
- Trust we can calm the mind and be present!
- Be open and attentive
- Trust we can allow ourselves to be and feel anything that comes up!
- Reflect upon experience
- Trust we can remember and review what came up in meditation!
- Grow and learn from observing and attending
- Trust we can apply what we learn from what we reviewed!
- Know something deeply
- Trust we can take away deep insights from the whole process!
What do I trust about my own practice?
- I trust in my discipline to sit down and try
- I trust in my ability to breathe!
- I trust in my knowledge of a deep calm within
- I trust in my dedication to stay committed
