Mindfulness - resources

The Mindful Movement on YouTube. Finding Peace in a Frantic World (Penman).

There's a Ted talk on the benefits of meditation and how it can change the brain https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=m8rRzTtP7Tc

Whatever you choose, do it regularly and with commitment.

Hope you are ok Tears?

When I went for CBT,  the therapist suggested I try mindfulness and meditation. I was given a handout explaining how the neuroplasticity of the brain can allow new pathways to develop. I like the Headspace app, although I am not currently a subscriber, there is also ‘MyPossibleSelf’ which is free and some others.

I just need to do it more!

I know what you mean! Objectively I know I need to sleep because I think maybe my last sleeping was around Wed/Thurs?? I don't feel tired, but if I don't sleep for too long I know I get hallucinations. I think I'll dig out those sedating antihistamines I have somewhere or other as I'm inclined to think all the breathing and focus stuff ain't gonna work. Thank you

I have no experience of bipolar but I’ve found meditation impossible to do when my anxiety is heightened.

In the nicest possible way, I hope you soon come down from feeling  ‘On top of the world’! 

I'm more than ok. On top of the world in fact! Just need to slow my thoughts down enough to sleep, because I probably need sleep
