Hi, my name's Andy and welcome to Radio Headspace.
And to Monday morning.
So a few days back, I was chatting to someone
but meditation and mindfulness,
a lot of my conversations seem to go that way.
This person was saying that whilst they appreciated the philosophy
of mindfulness, the approach of mindfulness,
they felt that really like meditation was where it was at
and they were trying to persuade me,
but yeah, but really kind of meditations
what it's all about, right?
As we sort of got into the conversation,
I was offering up my understanding of it
was every single moment is equally precious.
Every single moment is equally relevant.
Every single moment has its place.
It doesn't matter whether that's during our meditation,
whether it's at some other moment during the day,
the point is to be present.
And it's so easy to look at meditation
as though that's the most important part of the day
if we're someone who trains in meditation.
We might look at that time in the day
and think that's the really important time.
That's the time where we're cultivating awareness
and compassion and the rest of the day as well,
just the rest of the day.
But I really encourage you to reframe that outlook
if that is the way that you look at it.
Because I would say that meditation is no more important
than walking down the street.
It's no more important than eating our food.
It's no more important than putting our head
on the pillow at night time.
Because we can be sitting in meditation
and thinking about other stuff.
Equally, we can be doing all those other activities
while thinking about stuff.
But we can also be sat in meditation whilst being present,
aware of each passing moment.
In the same way, we can be walking down the street
and yet still be present, still be aware of what's going on.
So rather than thinking of them as two separate things,
starting to think of every single moment
being equally important.
Meditation and life aren't separate.
Meditation is just one thing that we do
within our daily activity and for sure.
It's very helpful and it creates an environment
where it's easier to be present.
But that doesn't mean it's more important
to those moments and more important.
Well, I think back to life in the monastery.
The emphasis on this is so great
that there are techniques and strategies
if you like for every single part of the day,
whether it's climbing out of bed in the morning,
whether it's shaving your head.
She'd do every sort of few days,
even sitting on the toilet.
There are techniques that encourage you to be more present
when you're sitting on the toilet.
Every single moment is considered another opportunity
to cultivate awareness, to cultivate compassion,
and to be more present, to be more engaged in life.
So as you head into your day today,
look out for those moments throughout the day
where you are able for whatever reason in that moment.
To step out of the thinking mind
and simply to be present with whatever you're doing
in that moment.
Thanks for listening today.
I'll look forward to seeing you back here tomorrow.
