Eckhart Tolle offers practical advice on using unhappiness as a signal to return to presence and awareness. He explains that recognizing moments of unhappiness as indicators of lost presence can help individuals shift their focus back to the present moment, stopping the cycle of suffering. Eckhart Tolle emphasizes the importance of mindfulness, observing the mind, and questioning the validity of mental narratives to disengage from harmful thought patterns. By understanding and transforming one’s mental processes, individuals can reduce suffering and live more harmoniously with the present moment.

Very difficult to be present whilst in severe chronic physical pain. Not emotional, physical.

@AnjelinaChristian says:

Bringing your attention back to present moment is mindfulness.. And when we’re able to do that while doing any task, we’re able to actively meditate 🧘‍♀️

@drcunda1 says:

Inner resistance to whatever arises in the present moment pulls you back into unconsciousness.

Inner resistance is some form of negativity, complaining, fear, aggression, or anger.

This is important because whenever you complain about what somebody else does, you're already beginning to fall into that trap of unconsciousness.

Are Palestinians collectively manifesting their own suffering? 🙂

Thank you Eckhart Tolle ♥

@profweigand says:

What about people whose here and now suffering is caused by severe physical pain that cannot be controlled by medication?

@user-wt1jd4rc9n says:

If conscience has not awakened, we will continue to suffer a lot. Suffering is caused by a mind that does not have the ability to stop suffering. The next step in evolution is the awakening of consciousness, the mind is not capable of giving us happiness and taking away suffering. I was suffering a lot and I was planning how to commit suicide and apparently I had everything, a husband who didn't love me but who wasn't bad, children, a stable financial situation. The reason why I suffered so much after the awakening of my conscience, I knew, was because my mind did not live in the present, I lived in the past, in a past in which I suffered a lot due to the way my father and my mother were because they did not know how to love because they had not been loved either. One day the feeling of emotional suffering was so intense that I ran to my bathroom, got on my knees and screamed at a God that I didn't believe in would help me because otherwise I was going to die and I fell into a trance for I don't know how long. I was kneeling but when I got up I was another person full of tranquility and peace of confidence, I who couldn't talk to people because I felt inferior to everyone, suddenly I could communicate with people, smile but my mind was off, all the time The suffering that my mind had disappeared, I had all the memories of daily life but the suffering no longer existed in my mind and that gave me a wonderful new life. Focus on realizing that what makes us suffer is not what is happening right now but the mind that continues to suffer as if it were living in the past. Follow Master Tolle's exercises and your life will improve a lot and if you are lucky your consciousness will awaken giving you a new life.

The best, nothing more

@jarkkojukkola9790 says:

One of my biggest problems are that I'm way too aware of myself and others. When I take 2-3 doses of alcohol it helps and I feel more "normal" but even it doesn't entirely take it away.

I think this is somehow related to bad self esteem or light depression perhaps.

The Mindful Moment

The BEST Place to Reside

@ActiveAdultsFitness77 says:

Power of Now is my guide book into my 70s. I have what I call a monkey mind. All over the place, add to this my addictive personality makes for a less than peaceful life. As the book says dwell more on being the silent watcher of your thoughts firstly. It sounds so simple, but the mind is clever and well trained. Finally I love his thoughts on emotions which actually means "disturbance or to stir up" Again observe no matter how painful, don't dragged into thoughts, life situations, fantasy in my case, having imaginary conversations or expectations about the future. Its all very tiring. Good luck on journey of awakening, awareness, joy and peace. Don’t try too hard. 🙏❤️

You don't always have to be talking to yourself in your head. It's ok for your mind to be quiet

@aleks8783 says:
