Sharing Mindfulness

15/9/2024

0 Comments

 
I have been sharing two sessions a week of mindfulness with my fellow co-workers. These sessions run for 20 short minutes twice a week and offer the staff an opportunity to engage in a range of mindful activities, meditations and contemplations. I have loved researching and running these sessions and find the undertaking of them deeply enjoyable. As you would well know, I adore the practise of mindfulness and being able to share that passion with others has been extremely joyful for me. 
So far we have engaged in:
  • Tai Chi
  • Gratitude 
  • Sound bath
  • Clay Therapy
  • The Sound of the Bell Practise
  • Contemplative Drawing 
  • Mind Body Spirit - candle meditation
  • Energy Exchange
  • Mindful Walking
  • Mindful Eating
  • Yoga
  • The Four Stones Meditation
  • Music interpretation through Art
  • NSDR - No Sleep Deep Rest
  • Self Worth Meditation
  • Slow Art 
  • Qigong
  • Becoming Whole Meditation
  • Colour and Chakra Therapy
  • Self Belief and Self Talk Contemplation
Through creating these two small sessions each week, I have really dug down, exploring the possibilities and the opportunities to engage in mindfulness in meaningful ways that are not only accessible for the complete novice, but also interesting and entertaining as well. Some sessions have generated up to 14 staff members, others only 3 or 4, but in all honesty the numbers of attendance are neither here nor there to me, it's that fact that I get to share a practise with others that I am genuinely invested in and completely believe in. 
Mindfulness does work, and better yet, it's not a religion or a fad or a doctrine, it's just a way of being and it does deliver profound and long lasting results. Anyone can do it and anyone can benefit from incorporating more mindfulness into their lives. I wish that delivering mindfulness sessions could become my full time job - is there such as a thing as a mindfulness consultant? I must look into that, I would just love to help others to find their bliss every single day - what a marvellous and meaningful job that would be!

​PINK FLOYD - THE WALL
Release Date: 1982
Rating: R 18+
Running Time: 95 mins 

A mixture of live action visuals speckled with various styles of animation, Pink Floyd - The Wall delivers an assault to the senses with its extraordinary surrealist soundtrack and controversial and political storyline. The movie delves head first into some emotionally and challenging territory by exploring themes of rejection, depression, oppression and exploitation, in startling and creative ways.
Rock star Pink is driven to madness by the pressures of his stardom and the traumatic events of his life. In order to survive he constructs an emotional and mental wall around himself, which leaves him numb and seeking escape. 
Pink Floyd - The Wall  is truly timeless, I've seen it at least once every decade since I was 15 and every time that I see it, I experience the material in a new way, and I can assure you that the message that it delivers is no less affecting now than it was in the '80s.
A very young Bob Geldof plays Pink with a convincing level of mania and the entire experience is unforgettably affecting and also disturbing in the most psychedelic ways; it's a definite must see movie experience that you won't forget in a hurry. 
FINAL SAY: I have become comfortably numb.
