Oops too late

I’m w you on that one 🥴
The mindfulness book "30 Days to Reduce Anxiety" by Harper Daniels is good. It has 30 exercises for meditation and mindfulness.
I just learned about this in group therapy yesterday, and I am going to practice it daily now, Thank you!
Great video. Many thanks. The technique is simple and elegant. You have to select a physical object, name it in your mind without adding any adjectives, and inhale slowly and exhale slowly. Repeat three times. E.g." That's a pointer" / take a deep breath. "That's a stool" / take a deep breath. "That's a screen" / take a deep breath. It really calms you down in 30 seconds.
Thank you Anton!
do this technique when you have repeating stress ( being married and have to see your wife everyday )
I am outta object to look in the house 🤣😂
This is mindfulness summed up perfectly. I will practice this now, very beneficial
This video deserves atleast a million views. Way better than other Ted talks on mindfulness.
I love it.
It is so simple and it works.
I will keep it in mind.
Thanks for sharing 😊
This one talk might, in fact, prevent me from a road rage incident. Rock on Phil.
Glad there is a public safety component Art!
Acceptance, another destressor. "I am going to be late" - when stuck in traffic, just accept it.
This comes up often, at work. Ranting over someone's driving.
EVERYONE has had a bad day/made a bad decision. It's someone else's day/turn.
not even the thought of dying prevents?
Short & hopefully effective, I will give it a try
This is great especially for athletes and in particular tennis players. I wonder if the audience might not have perceived a more effective experience had they not been in an already relaxed environment. This needs to be experienced when a person is actively anxious to fully appreciate it.
I have used a very similar technique for a few years now and can attest to its usefulness. When I use it my stress, etc. always decreases. And when I don't, it always remains. Simple as that.
This is a lot of what my practice (Wicca) teaches and its helped me a lot. I've also been doing some counseling and she's taught me this technique for when I can not get my mind to focus due to my PTSD and stress etc and its been very helpful.
Awesome, thanks Phil!
Great technique, whenever I feel stressed during studies I just use this technique and it's amazing
Greatest understanding
Love the simplicity of this technique. Implementing this into my daily routine...now. Thank you, Phil!
what happened
do u feel better?
How did Implementing it Go ?
It’s been 4 years. How is it going mate?
Have not used the 3x3 yet. Will try, sounds good and practical.
It is part of my life to pause, focus and breathe with attention the moment stress, crisis or panic occurs around or within me.
Don't have to think about it. I made it part of "how I tick". Because it works immediately!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this subject
Short, precise and to the point. Excellent Talk!
Thank you Yasmin!
This method is both simple and effective. I try to remember to focus on my breathing, but when my emotions are strong this can be hard. With this method, I like being able to name an object that I can see and touch, then to breathe in and out. Once I take those three breaths, it is then easier to continue to watch the in and out of my breaths. Thank you Phil.
My pleasure Dirk!
Thanks Phil, I am a Mom of 5 kids and one has multiple diagnoses. When you said pick a stressful situation that happened alot the first thing I thought was going to 1 of his multiple dr for a visit. (Which is happening tomorrow.) I am going to apply this technique and pray it brings focus and relief. Thanks.
This is a great technique. I feel calm and focused every time I use it. Thank you Phil :)
Glad you found it helpful Will! Thank you for letting me know!
A simple method which actually has effects! Thank you!
Thank you Robert!
The 3×3 has helped me a lot.
I have become a great fan of yours after learning and applying this method . I would be grateful if you kindly share any other materials that would help us increase our productivity. Thank you !!
Many many thanks for making it easy
I started mindfulness meditation last week. Sometimes just 10 minutes for the meditation seem too long for me. This is a great tip! I’ll try this at my work and everywhere.
Awesome!
this actually works, should be shared more often
Thank you! Glad you found it helpful.
@@PhilBoissiere thank you!
Very insightful and knowledgeable video...
I’m inspired and I’ve just started. The video was great about mindfulness.. definitely giving it a try.. thank u
Thank you for the kind words Sabrine!
Simple yet very powerful technique
Thanks Phil !
Glad it helped!
So true that we allow so much noise to impact our minds. I love how you said that ignoring mindfulness results in more stress and a decreased quality of life. This is so true. We need mindfulness both in the workplace and at home! Cheers!
You rock Adriana!
Thank you from Germany!
I love being told a simple, physical technique on how to approach mindfulness on an everyday basis. It’s simple and works.
The mindfulness book "30 Days to Reduce Anxiety" by Harper Daniels is good. It has 30 exercises for meditation and mindfulness.
i love mindfulness very much
This is great...thank you!
Thank you Ayanna! I love the monotone filter you are using on your recent videos.
“Every moment has meaning. Time is precious. Don’t miss out”. The beauty and truth of this presentation really does lie in its simplicity. Thank you.
Thank you for the meaningful comment!
Wow. I actually watched the Ted Talk without checking email or social media.
exactly, i even went further to taking notes after the experiment.. have a good day ;)
It’s effective. Thank You.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Narelle!
Thank you for this useful mindfulness information. It's such an important practice to develop in today's world - and nice to hear a short practice is feasible and effective. Mindfulness doesn't have to be complicated, does it? Thanks again
im 100% on board with this! its simple and effective
Thank you!
I am not a rabbit.
The exercise is very insightful, simple and practical Thank you for sharing.
Thank you!
Wonderful talk with a great hack to be mindful. ✌
Thank you Ajay!
Good one,thanks
Glad I found this video! I struggle with anxiety and driving is extremely hard! Been trying to understand the mindfulness technique, this video makes it simple ! Thank you so much !!
I too am struggling with anxiety and for some odd reason its really affecting my driving. What if anything have you found that helps you?
@@adamhunt9263 hi Adam. I've usually found the best option is so simply pull off the road and wait until it subsides. I've tried to talk myself out of it, or through it, but as you may know panic is immune to logic. One thing though- these episodes pass. They ALWAYS pass.
Learning to meditate and being disciplined in its practice has made me whole- at home with me.
Everyone here are kindred spirits. It helps to know I’m not the only one struggling with these things.
@@boltzmannbrain8698 Well said!
I'm infatuated with this. I recently enjoyed a similar book, and I was truly infatuated with it. "Mindful Mastery: Living Intentionally in a Chaotic World" by Kyle Ash
Thanks sir !
Great video and information thank you x
Thank you! You have a great channel.
"Most of us tend to pump the brakes when we think about sequestering a small amount of time or a quiet space for mindfulnessz"... Phil has created "time" and at the same time made a seemingly complex, time consuming and unobtainable practice into something so simple, easy and time subsuming that we'd be foolish to not do it.
Thank you John!
Fantastic. 🙏🏽
:)
Nice Phil!
Very Nice Technique
Thanks
There are people who enjoy boasting about themselves, gloating with pride. They want to intimidate others by showing off their achievements and this is how they feel a sense of stability. However, if you show those people that you do not give much care about what they say, their inner anxiety rises. It is your calmness that rather intimidates them. Personally, I experienced a person who would endlessly boast of his accomplishments. If I didn’t show the right reactions, the person would try to pick up a fight or would be discouraged from talking any further. He would start out by saying “I’ve been earning … just this week!” Or sometimes, he would suddenly be glum and wouldn’t continue the conversation. To him, I was a person who should be envious of him and see him as a role model. It is better to keep a social distance from these types of people. They will do their best to hear what they want to hear from you. They may get angry at you, or may try to logically persuade you. They may try to get your empathy by acting upset, or may bluff to make you jealous. How do I know this so well? I was one of them. I was considered to be comparatively more successful in a few aspects compared to people of my age. Honestly, I think I got lucky, but back then, I just enjoyed being a show-off.
Going to give this a go today 😊
How’d it go?
3X3 Method... DEAL or NO DEAL. Definitely will try... so DEAL!
Extraordinary
Thank you!
Thank you so much sir for sharing this.. Its mind blowing will definitely use it
It's amazing i Will try it
Thank you for the props!
I was about to breathe through my ears, good thing he said to use my nose or mouth. I like the method though, very simple
Thanks for trying it and commenting Devin!
Lol he actually means not necessarily from nose.
I assumed it had to be in through nose and out through mouth so I'm glad he specified
Guys breathing through the ears is a pro tip just saying. Pretend to do it while meditating and it's much easier to watch your breath without controlling it
Aim is for arya wisdom for mindfulness (sati)! ✨ 🙏 🙏 🙏
Great Video, I want to thank you great video thank you
Thank you!
This is great
Thank you!
Excellent. Thanks
Thank you Richard!
deep words.
Breathing positivity in a nutshell . Great job .
I like that comment ;)
Positive breathing, nice!
Oh I' ve invented the same method some time ago)) when I am overwhelmed
Still following ?
I really enjoyed this. Videos like this are what keeps us smaller channels forward leaning. Thank you! 🌿 I implement minimalist and mindfulness principles into my everyday life. Have an awesome day everyone!
Thank you Josh!
Resumo: Respirar e prestar atenção na respiração tirando o foco do agente estressor do momento.
Amazing technique, but there is one technique that I use and it works for me all the time. I stop talking in my mind. Thinking stops automatically when we stop saying words in mind after that there are only mute images which disappear automatically because there is no sound in that image. Hence, the thought doesn't go further and create thought chain. Give it a try and see the results.
That sounds interesting! Wish I could use it ,
Not so easy to shut the voice especially when you ADHD :(
I've many times thought if i could stop the words in my mind, that would do the trick. I haven't been able to succeed at this yet. Please share the method!
@@wendylcs4283 I'm practicing the same method that Megha Sarge mentioned. When I start to think about something, or talk in my mind, I try to stop it and say in my mind "Be present, be present, be present"
How do you stop it? Do you bring yourself back to not talking when you accidentally start again? I feel like I can't get my inner monologue to turn off.
@@notgonnalie8654 yess true. It's sometimes tiring too, but much better than thinking about things I should'nt think about
Love brevity.
buddhism philosophy, yoga and meditation is the way to go
Kerstin Liesenfeld with Morning Brain Bites. Recently interviewed on XING-Podcast. Actually teaches what you should do day to day...
I didn't really get how many repetitions should be done for each object. He says "say the name, make one deep breath, THEN repeat 3 times for each object. Does the word THEN mean we're gonna have to do it 4 times altogether? Or the first time counts too, so it is 3 times including the first repetition?
Will be very thankful to receive a reply. ,:-)
Nice video!
Thanks!
❤
Best. Thanks dude :)
Thank you!
Wow

Best ted talk ever?
Ever! 😜
mindfulness is a poor translation of anapanasati, more meaningful if we see it as introspection of breathing. the point is to relax and calm body mind. all this concentration on objects can lead to headaches. in fact the word concentration is translation of samadhi which really means harmony.
It’s like pointing a flashlight
Love it!
It works!!!!
Simple and effective! Can I use it while driving?
Just stay focused on the road and be safe! Probably kept me from losing it in traffic before.
Plz update now. How it benefitted from this much long practice?
I like this idea, but where is the evidence besides anecdotal evidence? Any studies done on this method?
As Murphy's law goes, all my data evaporated with a computer crash. I would love to recreate it in a more controlled way. Any suggestions are welcome!
Phil.. Y our mind wandering
lol this actually works, would like to know the science behind why this works.
Eye & concenration focus merged..
I named the lamp 'Gordon'....deeeeeeep breath.
Love it! Lol

Marveling at this wisdom? A book of complementary insights is what I'd suggest next. "A Life Unplugged: Reclaiming Reality in a Digital Age" by Theodore Blaze
Mindfulness? I propose Mindemptyness as a much greater tool!
Ill let u know if it works for me 🙂 Tks
Did it work for you?
@@PhilBoissiere well, its only been a week and havent had to use it yet....been a good week 😊
Tks for ckg !
@@susan4yahshua Now plz update it further ❤️
@@vineetverma8430 man , i just haven't needed it yet !
I guess thats good .
The Buddha taught mindfulness to the world first time. Read Buddha's teaching.then you will find original explanations of mindfulness. Greetings from sri Lanka
I’m just a little ant compared to the Buddha.
This is not really mindfullness or meditation, its a relaxation method, its a great one and relaxing is the first step thowards mindfullness but its not it.
This sounds a lot like Dr. Weil's deep breathing. 4-7-8.
after I finish the 3 objects should I repeat or not?
If you are still feeling stressed etc.
