Mindfulness Meditation: A Quick Guide

by Lyle Taffs

Overview

Mindfulness Meditation (MM) is an example of a behavioural practice that, through repetition and reinforcement, changes how we view, and respond to, our stream of thoughts and emotions – our stream of ‘consciousness’. Readers may ask why we bother to change how we view and respond to this. The reason is that much of what we think and feel actually goes on ‘unnoticed’, and has become ‘subconscious’. This means that it is hidden from our awareness - but it does not mean that it has no effect on us. It affects everything. MM sees the subconscious as being continually revealed through our bodies, our stream of consciousness, and by our automatic reactions or emotions. It seeks to address aspects of our sub conscious because parts of it become, over time, less of a servant and more of a master - one that does not always provide good outcomes for us. This book gives you a pathway to train yourself in mindfulness meditation.

About the Author

I came to Mindfulness Meditation somewhat later in life after walking a variety of paths, in what could be described as the ‘Christian’ arena. Formal studies have included Civil Engineering, Education and Counseling, with informal studies in Theology, Spirituality and Philosophy. It is primarily through the study of Counseling and Philosophy that I developed a passion for personal ‘transformation’ – and it is through the lifelong search for an effective means of personal transformation that I arrived at Mindfulness Meditation.
