Transcript of highlights
Today, I'm going to show you something that you can do to help yourself to be less reactive towards anything that might come your way and trigger you. Whether it's an annoying person, some noises that keep getting on your nerves, or just some emotions or thoughts you often get caught up in, we're going to do a little practice that can help you to train your mind and body so that you're not getting attached so quickly and easily to those things and instead create some space. All you have to do is just follow along and, if you stick around to the end, I'll talk about the idea of non-reactivity and how you can apply that to your everyday life.
In a lifestyle where we might be continuously on the go, trying to get stuff done and check things off of our to-do list, it can be so easy for us to just react to something that's happening. Whether it's a sound that's annoying us, like some neighbors being noisy, or if it's more like this pain in your side that keeps getting on your nerves, or it's more like this emotion that you'd rather not feel, like anger, when we're on autopilot it's just pretty easy for us to immediately react to something. Though what we can do is instead just notice more deeply what's happening within us by being aware of our physical sensations, those things you feel inside your body, and even other things too, like urges, behaviors, and emotions, without getting caught up in any of them. To be able to be an objective observer about any of those things popping up just makes it so that we can take in important information and, by doing so, slow enough that we can make a conscious decision how we want to respond as opposed to immediately reacting.
