    After 2 years I'm back here listening to the eternal wisdom again and it's even more valuable today. I too had great hopes that humans would reach an epiphany during the worst days of the pandemic, that there would be a great awakening, that a sense of oneness would persist beyond the heartening displays of coming together during the darkest days. Well, in my small part of the world, this is not so. In fact I've seen the opposite - a distinct increase in narcissism, greed and grasping, well beyond the ordinary days of pre-pandemic. It's a dog-eat-dog world and everyone for themselves again exacerbated by the fear and uncertainty of the economic instability brought about by a war, of all things to happen after a global pandemic . My despair and heartache brought me back to this zoom event in the hope of finding hope and a way to live in a world that seems even worse than the one that went before. Namaste

    Thank you Jon and Mark for such an inspiring talk. I've been reading all of your books Jon for the past 20 years and they've helped me through many hard times. And I've been listening to all of the Action for Happiness talks Mark during this pandemic. I really admire your work and your graciousness. Thank you both so much.

    What a great session by Jon Kabat-Zinn and the Action for Happiness team.
    Jon reminded us that stress is a universal experience and requires adaptation and response. It's how we respond determines the impact.
    Highly recommended - perhaps a lunch and learn? Or a safety meeting? Stress has a massive on accidents, with holidays approaching - Jon's video is very timely.

    Ok, so this is to treat the anxiety and stress, but if I still have to work and take care of a child at the same time, how do I split my attention? Attention is a limited resource and it's been proven that we can't focus on two things at the same time. So what is the practical answer? I do meditate every night but my problem doesn't disappear the next morning. The reason for the stress and anxiety is still there. The mindfulness and meditation for 30--60 min a day can't help when I have 7-8 hours of overstimulation, multi-tasking and split-tasking.

    • @Milkshakman
      @Milkshakman Před 3 lety

      What he is talking about is completely compatible with all of your appointments and chores/tasks. Just practice noticing where your attention is, over and over again. Where is your attention when you're on your way to your appointment? Where is your attention during your appointment? Where is your attention while you're doing all these things you have to do? That's really it. It's the simplest and yet most difficult thing, because the mind doesn't want it to be so simple; it wants something complicated and at some time that is definitely not right now. But that's the *entirety* of its function; it never stops. You just have to change your relationship to it.
      "I don't have time for mindfulness, I have to do xyz!!" Just look at it, and then bring your attention back to what is in front of you. Over and over again.
