1 Word, 3 Levels, Radically Different Benefits and outcomesWhile mindfulness is becoming a popular buzz word, it is important to understand the subtleties of the different powers of different practices. Understanding this, you can make a rationale decision as to which program you want to pursue.
There are several degrees of the power of the mindfulness that is developed through different mindfulness techniques. The first level or degree of mindfulness is what I would call intermittent mindfulness. This, is what is taught in many introductory mindfulness, or stress reduction programs and is more about recognizing when the mind has wandered and bringing it back to the present moment object ie. thoughts, sounds, or the breath. Its focus is more on the attention capacity of our mind than nurturing strong and sustained mindfulness. The second degree of mindfulness is sustained mindfulness, and after training our attention repeatedly using a consistent methodology we start to have greater success and habit of the mind focusing on the present moment. The benefits of sustained mindfulness is that it yields increased clarity and greater resistance power to the negative states of mind. It is a form of spiritual stamina and resistance. The third degree of mindfulness, is full-power mindfulness. This is when mindfulness and the associated mental states become dominant forces in the mind overpowering and obliterating the negative mind states and habits from repeating their habit formed behaviors. The clarity, focus and understanding that arises from this level of practice provides the gateway to the ultimate outcomes that these practices offer. While every higher practice level encompasses the lower forms of mindfulness as well, the lower forms do not guarantee reaching the higher forms. It is better to choose a mindfulness method, that you can apply at all levels, so that you develop strong and healthy mindfulness habits that you will not have to change in the future. For those who are Type A, you definitely want to chose a Full-Power mindfulness method. This is how you can successfully bring your perfectionist mindset to the mindfulness practice and use it to your benefit. My course, which is available online at www.mindfulness.business, has the potential to nurture full-power mindfulness and take you on the whole mindfulness journey with all the potential benefits, big and small. Try it for yourself, whether you are new to mindfulness or have tried other programs and methodologies. Having some aptitude at this labeling technique will only bring great benefit to whatever practice you decide to pursue wholeheartedly. I have trained in this method for more than 25 years with the world's leading teachers, and now I want to make these techniques accessible to you, without your having to incur the expense, the health consequences or the time of having to travel to distant and remote destinations overseas.
