7 Mindfulness Training Lessons

Overview: 7 Mindfulness Training Lessons

Do you desire a world...That you rule instead of one that rules you? Where you are powerful instead of helpless? In which you have no adversaries, only allies? Where you and your teammates consistently choose Reason over Ego?

If you answered yes, these lessons will help you achieve your goals. They may be summed up in one sentence, with emphasis on three words: Right-Minded Teammates accept, forgive, and adjust their thinking and work behavior.

Once you understand how to apply these 7 Lessons with a CCT, you will know how to do the same in all your difficult situations.

No wonder it felt so heavy and complicated. Seeing as I'd already made progress, I figured I might as well apply the next few Mindfulness Lessons, too. As I did, I could feel myself relaxing, and, in just a few moments, I was able to see the situation completely differently. My inner resistance has dissipated, and therefore the issue has, too.
