is there a perverted mindfulness?
We are probably living in a narcissistic era.
And this influences mindfulness training too...
This is a good video for all mindfulness teachers... Though the message in it can be discussed.
Is it like it is said there: most people coming to mindfulness courses are somewhat wounded?
In that case Metta - meditation may be good. A least if it doesn't ends with just love and kindness towards oneself, but goes out to the surroundings.
If you do it in the right way that should lead to a feeling of oneness, even with the whole universe. And the feeling of a separate self disappears. At least under the meditation.
That will not occur if you just do physical exercise like walking. Walking wont lead to a change of behavior as mindfulness can do. Of course physical exercise is very good too - but why not do both?
