I spent the last 30 days in a row meditating for at least 5-10 minute every morning, and in this video I talk about what happened.
I've always been curious WHY people meditate and how to do it. Does it actually help with worrying? Can it make me happier?
Meditation seems like this skill some people have and they make it seem like a superpower. I want that! Can I get it?
Let's find out!

Also, if you're curious about the book I mentioned at the end of the video you can find it on Amazon below (affiliate link).
The Untethered Soul - amzn.to/3SX7ULb
I didn't talk much about guided meditations in the video, however I am a fan. I often listen to Mooji, or Rupert Spira as I'm vibing with Non-duality at the moment.
I hope to create discussion in the comments about some of the best Guided meditations out there. I have listened to Sam Harris, Tara Brach, and of course Eckhart Tolle. They are all great!

As a recap, meditation buys you a moment before you think... and for someone like me who REALLY identified with my thoughts, I eventually realized I don't have to always react to them. I'm able to let the emotion flow through me without clinging on to it which is especially great when I'm driving 😅 Also, I didn't talk much about guided meditations in the video, however I am a fan. I often listen to Mooji, or Rupert Spira as I'm vibing with Non-duality at the moment. I hope to create discussion in the comments about some of the best Guided meditations out there. I have listened to Sam Harris, Tara Brach, and of course Eckhart Tolle. They are all great! Please share any of your favourites. I do also like Sahdguru though I'm partial to his name 😆

I relate so much to this. I stopped drinking last September and it's started me on a path of calming down and changing my behavior. Practice makes perfect or we can strive for perfection anyway

Thanks for the comment 👊 how did you get into meditation? Was it a book or a talk that inspired and helped you learn? I'm always curious what others do. I go through phases with it and always seem much more content when I do it regularly.

Fantastic description, amazing that your teaching it to your kids too! I've always been a MASSIVE over thinker and had kept me in my head instead of potentially moving forward with certain ambitions /goals etc. Meditation when i discovered Vipassana (which is essentially just a meditation on either the breath or to note what the thoughts are which come up every 5-10 seconds etc) eg. 'image', 'talk' or 'other' feeling. This Helped me tremendously and the thoughts/overthinking gradually dissipated. It was as if someone had lifted a tunnel vision helmet from my consciousness and i could see, feel and positively react and benefit from the natural flow & essence of the energy plain we live in ;-)

@TheSAHDLife 3 месяца назад

Amazing! Can you expand a little on the noting the "'image', 'talk' or 'other' feeling."? While I am better I'm still struggling here and there with a few pesky thoughts (samskaras) I'm having a hard time shedding. If you have any books or RU-vid vids too I'm always interested to learn! Appreciate the comment :)

@bryans8656 6 месяцев назад

Wow, you managed to pack so many important thoughts into nine minutes. When I started meditating back in the 60s (yep, I'm that old) one skill I was taught was to visualize my breath as it goes in and out, and when a thought intrudes don't try to stop it, just let it pass through. Oh, and I too am a follower of Eckhart Tolle.

@TheSAHDLife 6 месяцев назад

Thank you for the comment. I really appreciate it. I'm still a small RU-vidr and when I create videos like this, it doesn't really grow my channel... but I still go through the effort because I'm passionate about it, and if it helps just one person become curious about it or sparks conversations in peoples lives then I'm grateful. Do you have any other people who have influenced your life that you enjoy their work?

@bryans8656 6 месяцев назад

@@TheSAHDLife Brene Brown's work has definitely influenced my life.

@drugikrul 6 месяцев назад

Oh, it's so inspired by the "Untethered Soul" by Michael Singer!

@TheSAHDLife 6 месяцев назад

Haha right? If you know, you know! I loved his next book even more but I figure I'd start people from the beginning and if they love it they can discover it on their own.

@mudbrick6083 6 месяцев назад

Being a Christian, after I learned to reliably do mindfulness meditation focusing on the breath; I started adding the Jesus prayer to focus on as I breathe. 🧘

@TheSAHDLife 6 месяцев назад

You know after reading Michael Singers books and learning more about all of this, I have a new appreciate for Christianity and religion in general. I get it. I would say my philosophy is very similar. I just use different words but the meaning behind them is the exact same. 👊

@adamgunn6556 6 месяцев назад

Awesome vid. I like the breakdown on the benefits being practical not mystical. 🎉

@TheSAHDLife 6 месяцев назад

Thanks! Going down this path has given me a new respect for religion... but I don't think it's necessary to reap the benefits of meditation or even mindfulness. I can't wait to keep going though... see where I end up! Alone in a cave in mountains with no food and water for 3 days?? 🤣

@jake7311 6 месяцев назад

Great video. I like the life improvement stuff. Happy to be subscribed

@TheSAHDLife 6 месяцев назад

I love making videos like this and hope to make many more. It doesn't seem to be catching on in the algorithm which is a bummer, but, as there are some people (like you) who appreciate it I will continue to make them 👊 Thanks for your support! Really appreciate it.

Well, you definitely have great scenic environments to expand your meditation! I'll give it a whirl myself, Mr. Spock. Live Long and Prosper! Btw, not sure if you heard this appropriate joke, What did the Zen Monk say to the Hot Dog Vendor?............."Make me one with everything."

@bryans8656 6 месяцев назад

LOL!

@TheSAHDLife 6 месяцев назад

I love that! Good share. And yes having such beautiful nature around is just such a blessing... it's taken us quite a long time to get here but it was my goal in life to be near the water, and I'm grateful every second I get to be there. I just find it so healing. I'm glad I sparked curiosity in you. I can't wait to delve deeper into this world myself but was just so excited with my results I had to share. 👊

@arfanayousaf3339 4 месяца назад

Do you reccomend any meditation Apps?

@TheSAHDLife 4 месяца назад

Hi there :) Good question. No. I don't use any apps. I do have a few podcasts that I follow though. Also, I'm a HUGE fan of Michael Singer... he has a podcast which is great but he also shares free talks every few days on his website (templeoftheuniverse) which work just fine on mobile. I also love listening to (sometimes just on RU-vid) Rupert Spira (his podcast is good too. Very smart dude), the NonDuality Podcast, Mooji, and sometimes Eckhart Tolle. What have you been using/doing so far?

@novakane007 6 месяцев назад

Great video. I've meditated on and off for years. Currently on day 9 of getting back in the habit. Also doing a 30 day monrning practice. :) You're bang on about breathe being a powerful key. My 30 day practice is a breathwork practice. I really enjoy it. Feels more active and keep sthe monkey mind at bay.

@TheSAHDLife 6 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching! Oof my monkey mind has been very active lately, and after this video it started going bananas! What kind of meditation do you do? Have you read any good books on it or watched any good vids? I'm still learning and haven't quite nailed the exact type of meditation I think works best for me yet... but I do benefit from just breathe work. My uncle does a very active meditation and I'd like to try that sometime but don't really know where to start.

@simoneoldanitravel 6 месяцев назад

Hi, I really appreciate your videos and your ideas, I wanted to ask you if you still suffer from GERD? Since I suffer from it too and after that I changed everything in regard to diet and behaviours I understood that is more influenced by my mind and my thoughts.

@TheSAHDLife 6 месяцев назад

Thanks for your comment! I am very happy to say NO I do not suffer from GERD anymore. I can eat and drink whatever I want now.... FINALLY! With that being said, there are times where I will have discomfort if I'm being an idiot, like if I have a huge meal at 9pm then drink a bunch of big beers for example... but as long as I follow my own advice I am just fine. And yes, symptoms from stress and thinking too much come out in so many types of random ways... I am still working on it, but when I am able to take care of my body and mind things seem to resolve themselves. It's hard to stay on the path sometimes though.
