There is benefit in certain aspects of 'mindfullness', as in mindful walking. Aside from a meditative practice, it improves posture, grace, and prevents stubbed toes. I never did understand what m/meditation was aimed at, so ignored it.

I put mindfulness into useful perspective in "Unf*ckology" http://amzn.to/2fFdl2c (noting what a shitpile so much of the research is). And
@DrLoriBrotto does a great job of making it useful for more "present" sex in "Better Sex Through Mindfulness": https://amzn.to/2IOWrMt -
Awww! Now I really need to get my hands on your book!

Thanks so much -- I would be so honored if you read it. I debunk a lot of myths from social psych and created a transdisciplinary process for people to use to transform themselves. I don't always get credit for what I do, bc I don't have a Ph.D. & I use profanity/humor!

if you need motivation to do something, you need to work on something else. motivation is as stupid a requirement as ambition. meditation works beautifully. it gives you clarity (and clarity of perception). not useless motivation and ambition.

I, on the other hand, remain somewhat checked out about the hopelessness of whatever I'm writing, which makes it possible for me to continue instead of curling up in a fetal position under my desk.

Mindfulness and meditation are only tools. What matters is what you do with them.https://luisderivera.com

I had not seen any research demonstrating any side effects, I'll definitely give this a read, thanks for sharing! Definitely bad news and goes against my expectations, but data is data.

Yup. I can vouch for this.

Look how I saved time. I don't need mindful meditation for this at all. I hit the ground shunning, so to speak.

How do you define Motivation? It is Initiation? (i.e., low motivation => low initiation =>laying around on the couch?
