Mindfulness Community "Gatherings" ☆ Weekly Meditations ☆ "Journaling + Acceptance" （ Free ・ Online Ǿ)

Gatherings are open to all. Whether you are a beginner or experienced, please feel free to join us.

★ Mindfulness ・ Community "Gathering" meets online every Wednesday at 8pm for meditation.
Beginners to mindfulness are also welcome. ♪


The theme this time is "Journaling + Acceptance".

Journaling is "just putting down on paper what comes into your head," also known as writing meditation.

Writing things down helps you to see things objectively and clear your mind.

Acceptance means "acceptance, embracing.

Acceptance is a very important essence in mindfulness.

But it is not easy to accept unpleasant thoughts, feelings, body sensations, and events as they are without judging them as "bad" or trying to erase them as "disgusting.

This time, after writing out your "here and now" thoughts through journaling, I would like to practice "acceptance" and "making room" in my meditation.

★ Please bring paper and pen.

Looking forward to seeing you all ！

We are currently holding online meditation sessions and events in Corona.
You can join us from all over the world, not just Japan and Los Angeles.

I want more people to know about mindfulness and use it in their lives ！ and
I thought it would be more fun to have friends to encourage each other ！ than to be alone, so I am looking for friends.

Let's deepen and expand mindfulness together ！


[What is mindfulness? （ to be aware of what you are experiencing without judging it.
As busy modern people, we are often on autopilot, swept up in our own automatic thoughts and feelings, or information from the outside.
In fact, the only time we have is "now," but we are not living in the "now. Don't you think this is a waste of time? ？

If we continue to practice mindfulness, we can become aware of our negative thoughts and feelings and make a conscious choice to let go of them, and
we can be more present and feel happier. You will be able to live more peacefully and consciously.
