Všímavost – v tomto případě pouhé dvanáctiminutové cvičení bez meditace – nám zřejmě umožňuje odpoutat se od našich problematických chutí a činit tak zdravější volby. Vědci zjistili podobnou dynamiku u touhy po nezávazném sexu a spekulují, že by se mohla uplatnit i v mnoha dalších oblastech – všude tam, kde by malý odstup od našich nutkání nebo fobií mohl zlepšit chování.

I am one of those older Americans who are less happy with the direction our society/culture has gone. Yes, we have to deal with many problems just as other generations have, but the pace of change toward individualism and interruptive technologies is outpacing the ability of the human mind to adapt. We simply were not cut out for this pace, nor for this culture.
Mindfulness certainly helps (as many sages have shown), but as another article highlighted in Daily Good shows, human connections are the most basic thing that we need in order to have meaningful and healthy lives.
Can we slow the rate of "progress?" Maybe not for now, but I strongly believe that our culture is headed for a forced reset that, while difficult, may be just what we need to in order to live more meaningful, healthy, and happy lives. Not "going back to the good ol' days," but going forward to a more meaningful and humane way of living - less materialistic and more inter-connected.
Peace, and Happy New Year!
