Life, uhhh, finds a way.

That's awesome. I know someone who does that specifically for college sports teams. They're doing really well and everyone they work with has nothing but good things to say.

The bone stock basics are this:

Take a period of time during the day or several periods of time. I recommend honestly starting with 1 minute and then 5 minute chunks 4 times a day.

In that time you want to sit somewhere vaguely comfortable. Even your desk chair is fine.

Then focus on your breath. Find an aspect that you can focus on. Different aspects are easier fo different people.

Some like to focus on the feeling of the air passing through the nostrils on inhale or exhale.

Some focus on the feelings of the lungs filling and the ribs expanding.

Others focus on the entire cycle of breathing.

Then the final step is when you notice your attention wandering to anything at all, you label that "thinking" and move your attention back to your breath.

The point isn't to "Stop Thinking" the point is to notice your thoughts, feelings or emotions as they happen and stop following the narrative of the thought. Don't judge the thought. Don't indulge the thought.

Some also find it helpful to repeat "I am breathing in, I am breathing out, I am present." However as your practice goes on and evolves you should try stopping the mantra and just focusing on the breath.

Like any exercise you are working a muscle. It's going to be difficult at first and almost seem impossible.

Common complaints are,"I just keep getting off track!" Or "I catch myself daydreaming!"

Awesome. Great. That's literally the practice. Catching yourself and bringing your attention back is flexing the attention muscle.

I'm present this secularly and have plenty of information in that realm but this is, at it's core, a Buddhist practice for me and I'd be happy to expand on that as well.

Eh... I'm on a scholarship studying to become a mindfulness meditation teacher.

Some graduates have gone on to start businesses that teach mindfulness to corpos.

So I'll probably just be leading mandatory wellness classes you hate....or don't. It's nice and actually works.

Ahhh thank you for confirming that at 35 I have no chance being self taught.

>The Invacar was that vehicle

......redundancy

Dude I've loved his late night shows since I was a kid in the 90s and now in my mid 30s his car show is UH-MAYZING. Love his car stuff even more than the talk show.

Sounds like something a shill for "Big Leno" would say.

You can tell...because...of how it is.

>Most people don't become violent even when they become irrationally angry.

I'll have to find some stats on that

>People that do, need some form of anger management.

No disagreement here. I work with addicts. Lots of them out of prison or fresh from anger management classes.

>Violence in response to cheating is not common or normal, even though irrational anger is common and normal.

I dunno man. Searching "infidelity intimate partner violence" makes it seem pretty common. I mean as far as causes of intimate partner violence.

Married, lots of kids, nice area, nice house... I wonder what could have precipitated this.

Heel inside grilled cheese gang rise up

>Orcas scare everybody, everywhere.

Especially when they wander in to town stalking moose, eh?

Yup. Exactly. Usually only once in a block of text or complete thought when speaking to someone.

Peace Be Unto Him

When speaking you only really need to use it the first time they're mentioned in a paragraph or like the first time you mention them when speaking to someone. But if you turned to someone else that just sat down and started another conversation you'd use PBUH again.

See he's got a lot of money but it's not old enough. He can't get away with everything yet.

Cue (or queue... They both sort of work) people reacting emotionally because of their worry about their own indiscretions.

I approve of AI making suggestions and having that reviewed with the option to override by human judges.

"Judges worried impartiality of AI may negatively affect their ability to dole out unfair punishments based on incorrect biases."

3? Try 12.

Aye. Back when Men were Men and women were Men.

And children were smaller Men.

Lol I'm in the same one.

I said:

>Politics aside, it's not any more toxic than Reddit and Instagram.

>Disagree. It's how the information is presented that makes it so addictive and harmful. That's like saying,"Doritos are no worse than salted corn on the cob."

>No.

>However Instagram and Reddit and everyone else is trying to copy their secret sauce. The difference here is that the type of information presented won't be controlled by a CCP developed algorithm.

>It's been beaten to death but in China TikTok is full of science and maths and laudable people doing laudable things. That's what they expose their children to.

>In America, well, you see what American TikTok is...
