5 Keys To Mindfulness To Change Your Life In 15 Days

Big changes are always preceded by small jolts, timid daily variations that have the power to transform our lives for the better. Mindfulness can help us achieve this change and these five keys will allow us to be more aware of the present moment to give way, in a short time, to real changes.

We all know perfectly well that when it comes to happiness, miracles do not exist. On the other hand, there is one thing that does exist: this force of will and this open-mindedness which, gradually and day after day, becomes more receptive  to everything that is happening to create opportunities. To open the right door, when you need it.

Rejoice, because every place is HERE and NOW and because everything is happening NOW.

One of the greatest enemies that separates us from these thresholds of opportunity is undoubtedly the “wandering spirit”. So much so that, according to several studies,  we spend between 30 and 40% of our time with “autopilot” on. Living a routine-based life where we become mere passengers and not pilots means leaving our own happiness in the hands of fate.

It is not an adequate thing. We therefore suggest that you make changes. We invite you to include these 5 keys in your daily life to see direct results in 15 days.

1. Be receptive to your emotions, the best time to listen to them is NOW

Mindfulness is above all a philosophy of life, a tool to develop a fuller awareness of the present moment and of what is happening.

• None of this would make sense if we weren’t paying attention to our emotions. Aspects like disappointment, frustration, contradiction or rage cannot be stored in a folder on our brain’s hard drive.
• We have to manage, understand these emotions, take control of this inner world without pushing it away.

2. Mindfulness teaches you to stop judging

Learn to live your own reality without judging. Others have every right to make, understand and live their lives as they wish.

• Your life is yours, be responsible for it and avoid making judgments about other people’s universes. This very simple thing will immediately give you a calm and balanced state of mind.

3. Be receptive, listen, learn to be present

Do it, cut off the incessant repetitive sound of your thoughts right now.

• Now open your eyes: not just to look, but also to more calmly “see” everything around you.
• Lower the pace of your life, stop and breathe.
• Learn to listen, you have “heard” noises for a long time, but now is the time to feel, see and listen with the  heart , with the center of your mind.

“In a heart free of tension, love springs from all sides.”

-Maharishi-

Likewise,  another exceptional tool for learning to be more present is the better management of our time. If you want to have a fuller life, it is necessary to learn to apply mental filters and to focus all of your energy and personal resources on that vital purpose that you have in mind.

4. Set aside “I MUST BE” to practice “I AM”

We spend much of our life being what others expect of us. We strive to please, to do what others want… All of this is a source of unnecessary suffering that leads us to a slow absence of happiness.

• Make changes. Replace the “I must be” with the “I am”.
• To remember who we are and connect with our authentic being in the present moment, meditation can be a valuable ally.

We cannot forget that the essential tool of mindfulness is undoubtedly meditation.

5. Practice acceptance

Practicing acceptance on a daily basis does not mean giving up in front of everything that is happening around us.

• This means, in the first place, accepting ourselves and accepting our current emotions.

• Acceptance also allows us to understand and respect realities that are different from our own.
• Knowing how to accept also means speaking this language of the heart through which tolerance and understanding are combined. Only in this way will we be able to initiate changes and open the doors to our inner well-being.

To conclude, these 5 keys are like windows that we can look at every day to see and understand life in a different way.

Mindfulness is the best framework to get closer to full and more authentic happiness. Do not hesitate to take advantage of its tools, to allow people who are experts in this field to guide you. Training is still the easiest and most convenient way to achieve direct results in a short time.
