This blog offers reflections on the development of mindfulness practice in personal and professional life, on Psychology and on Spirituality, as well as news about Mindfulness Activity in the Geneva area.
Teachers often suggest considering your thoughts to be like clouds in the sky. Some are dark and stormy, some are beautiful and fat, while others are wispy and ethereal. Sometimes there are no clouds at all. No matter. Just like clouds in the sky, thoughts pass through your mind. And just like the sky, your mind can contain it all.
We are accustomed to identifying with every large or small thought that comes along. But you can train in identifying as the sky instead. When you do, tremendous confidence arises. You see beyond doubt that you can accommodate it all —sunshine, storms, mist, fog, hail —and never give up.
I hope you may find this blog helpful.It aims to encourage the daily practice of mindfulness and support those who have participated in mindfulness programmes.
