“Mindfulness meditation is not a thing—it is an activity of doing. It is key to an eight-faceted practice capable of freeing us from discontent. Being mindful is being deeper than the ocean, stronger than practiced aversion, quicker than chronic bad habits, and easier than pi(e)!”

- p.m. cheevers, Mindfuling DIY


Listen to Mindfuling podcasts on Buddhism...

This idea of emptying your mind and not doing anything is mostly a misunderstanding of what meditation is pointed towards. Practice and know. A whole lotta breath awareness, as object and focus, is practiced, and a whole lotta pandemic context brought in and befriended.

A bit of a raw field recording, sheltering-in-place and all that, and a body and a flow of sound. Stay at home. Stir-crazy.

Awareness of aspects of fire is a practice. It can be a practice that focuses on just the sounds of fire. There are lots of different sounds of fire. Listen. Practice. Wakeup.

Conceptually simple — practically, not so simple. Mindfulness of breath, of body. It's not one and done. Intention and practicing. Remembering and reminding. Cultivating wakefulness. Contact. You being you.

Practice, guided for letting go and just practicing... practicing... beyond the limits of sound... and even mantra.

Statues and trappings associated with religion can really, and do really, impede individuals from learning and practicing meditation. For some, the trappings are a delight that attracts to such a degree that they think the statues and writing and incense are the practice. Instead, just practice. Focusing on the felt sense of the body is a great...

Some guided sound field encouragement. Body can fail you now. Deep fake. What is real. What is practice. Frosting and pie.

How to practice mindfulness meditation with guidance amidst the distortion of life. How to understand what it is you are not getting when you practice via podcast. Noise. Cancellation. Relief. Mind. Play!

Practice a bit. Stay with it, let go of the habit of trying to figure it out whilst practicing. I know, it is so nice to figure stuff out, but that is not what you are doing, that is what you are doing most of your non-present time! Stand, sit, practice. RIP Grumpy Cat, clearly not dead...

Not just relaxing and zoning out. Not just 10% happier. Active a concentrated awareness that is responsive, even when the doggo makes its presence felt. Respond.

Conditions and context matter for accurate discernment. It ain’t as simple as speaking objectively, truthfully, no matter what. Moment to moment, how do you practice, how do you keep sharp and relaxed and relaxed and....

Practice daily, don’t count on another or a special time or mood. Practice, get to know the present. Simple but not easy to maintain, so practice. Practice. And practice.

Practicing with what you got and letting go and placing awareness in your consciousness. What is really going on. Dropping the story overlay. The weather is happening—so use it. Practicing awareness.

Excerpt from a sitting, guided, and a long talk on Change, TS Eliot, Bowie, discontent but, mostly, that olde reliable change.
