Key ideas in Finding Your Calm

  • The goal is noticing thoughts, not stopping them
  • Success is the moment of awareness, not the absence of thought
  • Awareness is a shift in perspective, not a thought-blocker
  • You can be aware of a thought while it is still present
  • Meditation provides relief from the 'command' of impulses
  • Wandering is a natural part of the process
  • The difference between thinking and being aware of thinking
  • The payoff is the space between an impulse and an action
  • The cycle of a successful meditation session
  • The 'rep' or 'win' happens at the moment of noticing
  • The immediate payoff of noticing impulses
  • Short sessions lower the 'barrier to entry' and prevent overwhelm
  • Noticing you are distracted is a sign of success
  • Three minutes is enough time to experience the cycle of wandering and noticing
  • Feeling restless but staying seated is a sign of success
  • Signs of 'doing it right' during the first session
