      Attention is a bridge to mindful living. Here goes a foray into outlouding some thinking as I'm going ....

      Meditation practice tunes you keenly into your attention and awareness. Not just thoughts, or emptiness. But a keenly felt sense of what you (body-mind) are directly attending to, and what is in your wider awareness.

      In fact, attention is a pretty critical unit: - Where your attention goes, your energy goes - your body and brain resources go in tandem - The quality of your attention is the quality of your engagement with the world Give good attention, you tend to get it back.

      The discourse on "why meditate" often stops at creating calm, or reducing stress This misses so much richness... 🙊 It also confines meditation to discrete space for calm. Rather than a skill, useful in *everyday practice* ... A muscle you build because its always useful

      Mindfulness based stress reduction (MBSR) is better geared into everyday life. But has similar traps. Being "mindful" feels like being hyper-conscious and cognitively engaged in our everyday actions. At worst, a performative over-overt-awareness.

      Before I go ahead. Worth noting I have the feels that, as much as possible: 1) we should make mindfulness-type practices broadly accessible, 2) emphasis should include how they useful/are used in the daily practice, can change your real life, etc That's what drives my interest

      it’s easy for me get frustrated with how financially inaccessible these practices can be but i often forget how difficult it is to even discover this stuff + receive the knowledge in a legible/actionable formhttps://twitter.com/choosy_mom/status/1220468969284308994 …

      it’s a little *unchill* that many of the mainstream inner work/trauma resolution practices are inaccessibly expensive to most people (therapy, rehab, retreats, increasingly meditation & mindfulness)

          incidentally though, nerdy rationalist-adjacent twitter is one of the best resources for this kind of learning—i found out about alexander technique, wu wei, impro, and a lot of other ideas right here on this birdapp

          Yeh. This part of twitter is a huge boon. For me, the best is that people will take down your bad thinking, or challenge your assumptions. I think it's the interaction (not wrote learning) that pushes up the price of many of these therapies up. And what makes them transformative
