Meditation
(lemmy.world)
One of the best characters ever, from any universe.
I have watched that movie once, at the cinema, and this character is the reason for that.
I found him so unnecessarily loud and annoying that I just can't watch it again.
If the film is on TV I start watching it again, and I enjoy it, until he comes on and starts shouting and that's it, I'm done.
(I was on Reddit for years so I understand that I'm not actually allowed to have this opinion so, everyone, downvote away. However it will still not make me like him.)
We can't all be supergreen. For what it's worth, Korben Dallas agrees with you.
I disagree but understand. Have an upvote for honesty & the discussion.
Bzzzzt
Damn, I wish Ruby Rhod was in my head. I'd be supergreen.
You'd also be hot-hoT-HOT!!
The Ruby Rhod in your head critiquing your last sexual encounter
"No fire! No energy! No nothing!"
I want all positions:
Sits to try and meditate
IT'S PEANUT BUTTER JELLY TIME PEANUT BUTTER JELLY TIME
slows breathing
WHERE HE AT WHERE HE AT
I'm a man with ADHD and I honestly have 3-5 of these fucking guys in my brain at ALL TIMES.
I've started delegating work to mine. I'm tired, it's their turn. Make them pay rent, see how they like it.
A large part of meditation and mindfulness is learning to let go of and silence those voices.
So what do you do then? I have no inner voices. I don't remember if I ever did.
Have I achieved enlightenment? What should I do with it?
I really wonder what happens during meditation to those people without an inner monologue...
Same thing as everyone else, our thoughts just take a different shape. My thoughts are pretty abstract, I have neither an inner monologue nor mind’s eye, but it’s not just total emptiness and silence when I meditate.
Having both, that sounds really unimagenly strange and alien to me... 😯
Everyone's got an inner monologue. Some are just better at articulating it.
But meditation isn't about thinking, it's about breathing. Slow, deep breaths to calm your heart and relax your muscles. The idea is to clear your mind by physically releasing stress, not to dwell on your problems by squeezing your eyes shut and catastrophizing.
nope, there are actually people who don’t have an inner monologue. they think with pictures, associations, and feelings but cannot hear themselves in their head.
Wasn’t that the super fast talking micro machines guy or am I way off base.
That's the guy!
Sure I can sit and observe my thoughts.
WHOOOOOSH
There it is, that was my train thought, I was able to sucessfully observe it race by me and disappear before I could catch up!
Did I do it right? This kind of feels like watching a rally race from the side of the road, wow meditation is easy!
That sounds a lot like mine, except it’s a busy highway.
When I meditate I like to imagine walking away from the highway and up to a distant hill. I can see the cars go by in the distance but can’t hear the traffic, just the wind in the trees.
lol love this. this is me
I've never had luck with meditation outside of a group setting.
It was once explained to me as thinking about nothing, not even thinking about thinking about nothing.
It's hard to do, but if you "focus" it works.

Be cool to each other. We'll welcome most occult themes, it's okay if you stray from witchcraft a bit.
