Manage your mental health and panic attacks with mindfulness meditation!
Daily meditation will help you to get out of your head and into the present moment. It will help you to reduce the severity and duration of destressing thoughts, emotions, moods, and mainframes, giving you some space between you and your mental phenomena, allowing you to observe what is happening without falling into it completely.
It will show you that you are not your thoughts, rather that you are the thing having those thoughts. Knowing this is one thing, but experiencing it is quite another. Over time, and with practice, Mindful Meditation will show you that, and your mental health will improve.
It will help you to think clearer and handle various life situations and interactions better and increased your ability to stay on task and avoid distractions of all kinds.
In this course you will learn how to mindfully meditate and to establish it as a daily practice in your life. The class project will be a seven-day meditation journal, where you will note down your progress, your successes and any challenges you faced.
You will also learn how to use mindfulness meditaiton to manage your panic attacks with four complementary strategies that will assist you with managing your panic attacks. You will learn what to do before, during and after the attack, as well as how to stop them from occurring in the first place.
The four strategies you will learn:
1) Acknowledge and Accept - Fighting/worrying/fearing a panic attack just makes it worse. You will learn why this happens and what to do instead.
2) Present State Awareness Meditation - What can you feel in this exact moment? Focusing on your senses is an amazing technique for getting out of your head and into the present moment.
3) Mindfulness Meditation - By training your ability to focus on the present moment, you will be able to detach yourself from troubling thoughts, and therefore not be as impacted by them.
4) Stretch and Breathe - The mind and body are completely interconnected, with the mind taking cues about the environment from the posture and breathing patterns of the body. Change the body, change the mind.
It is time to start meditating!
