• Mindfulness of Daily Activities (see below)

Week 2 of MBRP. We practiced Urge Surfing and Mountain meditation.

This session focuses on recognizing triggers, and on experiencing them without automatically reacting. We begin by learning to identify triggers, and we observe how they often lead to a chain of sensations, thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Mindfulness can bring this process into awareness, disrupting automatic reactive behaviors and allowing greater flexibility and choice.

Mindfulness of daily activities: consider small, everyday things you do during your day (washing dishes, brushing teeth) and try one or two out like we did with the raisin exercise, where we slow down and bring our full mindful awareness to the process.
