There are studies that show humans are feeling lonelier and more isolated than ever before. And while it may feel like it's a great thing to "respect each other's Headspace" and privacy, someone may be waiting for you to reach out to connect.

 Humans have a tendency to focus on the future. We tend to get so caught up in the future, concentrating on what we don’t have or what’s to come, that we don’t see what’s right in front of us. Is your idea of what should be happening getting in the way of what is actually happening? The next time you catch yourself asking, are we there yet, pull yourself back to the present and notice what is happening right now.  Learn more about your ad choices.

We get asked all the time: how quickly will I feel the benefits of meditation? People want to feel different quickly, and get discouraged and may even give up if they aren’t seeing results right away because they have an expectation of what should happen. When we approach any new skill without expectation, we see the benefits sooner rather than later. Learn more about your ad choices.

 Every action has a consequence. Intended or not - everything you do has a result, and a lot of your reactions and responses are habits. But even knowing that doesn’t necessarily help us change! Of course this is also true in the mind. The more we can sit with the mind, the more we can make a change. Learn more about your ad choices.
