Mental Health - Widower Experience (WX)

Lassen Sie für einen Moment das Tempo des Alltags hinter sich und schenken Sie sich selbst Ihre volle Aufmerksamkeit. Das Meditieren ermöglicht es Ihnen, Stress abzubauen, Ihre Gehirnfunktion zu stärken und Ihr allgemeines Wohlbefinden zu verbessern – eine wohltuende Pause inmitten des Trubels. Am Mittwoch den 21. Mai feiern wir den Welt-Meditations-Tag, eine Gelegenheit, innezuhalten, zur Ruhe zu kommen und die Kraft der inneren Stille zu zelebrieren. In einer Welt, die oft von Hektik und Stress geprägt ist, bietet die Meditation einen Zufluchtsort für Körper und Geist. Sie ist ein Werkzeug, das uns hilft, Resilienz zu entwickeln und unsere mentale Gesundheit zu stärken. Die Sehnsucht nach Einfachheit und Ruhe Dick Van Dyke , der in diesem Jahr hoffentlich seinen 100. Geburtstag feiert, bringt es auf den Punkt: "When you’re a kid, you lay in the grass and watch the clouds going over, and you don’t have a thought in your mind. It’s purely meditation, and we lose that." Als Ki...

When the world around you is ensconced in madness, and you can’t quite seem to find a moment of peace in the storm of the day, it’s time to step back and remember those blissful moments as a child where we merely lost ourselves in the world. World Meditation Day is a call to the world to take time to participate in this millennia-old practice and clear our minds, remembering that we are people and humans first, and in a certain role or workers second. When I start to feel overwhelmed in life, at work, ... with too much challenges, too much going on and around, just to much to take in and too little time to process it all, I rely on mindfulness. It’s all about tuning to yourself, into your sense of inner calm so you can be a better conduit for new insights and solutions. My Simple Meditation Practice Sit comfortably in a place that feels stable and easy. Notice what your legs are doing and check how your legs are placed. Cross your legs if you're on a cushion. And if you're sit...

There are many reasons why inner peace is important in all aspects of life - but the most important reason is YOU! Inner peace means being calmness - mentally and spiritually calm - being aware of yourself, in sync with yourself, with your emotions despite the everyday challenges of life. When you found and have peace of mind, you’ll not be swayed by what people think about you or the events and challenges you encounter. They allow us to overcome the problems that life hands us and all the curveballs and trick plays of life. Self-awareness, love and peace of mind do protect you. It teach us to survive… to live now… to have the courage to confront each day. Finding inner peace is a personal experience, and peace means something different for everyone. There are several ways to find peace within yourself  - being at peace with yourself can mean: Feeling secure about yourself and your path Being mindful and self-aware Finding the ability to let go No matter how you achieve it, in...

“Patience you must have, my young Padawan,” says Yoda once to Luke Skywalker. Patience is a virtue that we often lack today. We seem to be constantly pressed, pushed for time - scampered and rushed - and when we have to wait, it drives us crazy.   But that doesn't help - it never helped, and it will not help. On the contrary, when we feel stress, we only harm ourselves.  Following you will find a few tips on how you can learn to become more patient, persistent and relaxed. Serenity and Patience With more serenity and patience, you can go through life much happier. You can deal with stress better, which can even save you from burnout in the long run and make you a happier person.

Wouldn't you rather convert this negative energy into something positive? Serenity ...

When you are grieving, the intensity of your emotions can make it seem that life or a moment is not OK. Negative feelings may easily become overwhelming, leaving you feeling disconnected from others and terribly alone. At these times, directing loving kindness to yourself and those around is a simple way to reconnect with others and open your heart to receive their love. I like the method of Loving Kindness How I do it ... As most often for such practices, I check that I do have a comfortable body position. This will be easiest lying down or seated.  Once I feel comfortable I bring my attention and awareness to my breath, feeling the movement of my belly. Inhaling, noticing sensations of breath. Exhaling, noticing sensations of breath, as the belly rises and falls. We'll now shift into this practice of joy. Now bringing to mind someone who you really believe has your best interests in their heart. Someone who has extended kindness and support to you. This could be someone you know ...

For many people meditation is still part of esoteric or a esoterical life. But brain research sees it very differently today - and why not give it a try. Meditation can have a very quick, very beneficial effect right from the start. Even beginners and skeptics will find it beneficial - if they start such a meditation practice with a curious attitude and let go of too many expectations - I am sure they will find easily access to meditation if they do not close their minds. By the way a good meditation technique to quickly find yourself, and which is also great and works very easily even for newcomers, is the body scan. We feel our whole body - from head to toe - and just perceive. Once you did something like that you can go and try other forms of meditation. And make a daily or regularly practice. Meditation and grieving - Meditation at time of death Since hat I found for myself is a way of meditation called 'Phowa'  is a techniques include breathing and meditation that can then...
