I practice anapanasati just follow and feel my breath for 35 minutes a day for 5yrs now, it has transformed my life, my health and my mental state unbelievably, no thinking of things from the past, no worrying about the future and things that may not even happen anyway, I have not had a cold for 5yrs, I a calm and collected not like the hot head I used to be, I cannot recommend it enough.

4 years ago, I had life changing spine surgery at the age of 74. I went from a Let's Go to Grandma's to eat because she is such a great cook....to hoping I can manage to make tea. Jon, lying in bed first thing in the morning and taking time to focus on my hands would not be possible but for the fact that it is the shock of pain that is my spine is my alarm clock. Sure I notice my breath because it is more panting with the pain then quietly being aware of the in and out of the breath. I started with TM back in the 70's when the stress of 3 babies in 7 years was getting too much and those early steps in meditation(of a sorts) did help me through. And have continued with meditation along with the various Buddhist versions/teachings. The surgery changed everything. Yoga is out, the surgeons tell me my bones are too frail, osteoporosis along with the 5 compression fractures they repaired. I never leave the house now. For those in chronic, severe pain daily and can ride it out with the breath, you are most fortunate. Jon, you have helped millions in the MBSR Clinics to re-configure how to deal with various physical/emotional issues. I wish I could be one.

Phenomenal lecture, thank you so much for this. Actually conducting a research project on the different with MBSR in a natural nature setting vs a man made cosmopolitan such as London.

Great lecturer. Worth listening every day 🙏🏽

Inspiring man. It's crazy that he is 74 years old now. And this is the first time I've ever heard him swear. 1:45:49 "There are an infinite number of wrong ways. But there's no one right way. [...] Aging, is not necessarily like 'wisdom comes with aging'---you just get fucking old! If you pardon my putting it that way."

What a beautiful, touching, uplifting lecture.

So awesome I love JKZ!!!

A Chris Hedges interview in which Dr. Kabat-Zinn was mentioned brought me here. Hedges mentioned that Kabat-Zinn has worked with military personnel to teach these techniques to active duty soldiers, and wondered aloud what Howard Zinn would think of this or have to say about it were he alive. It can be viewed here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b55dpsqDxrTZmqM.html

This makes me feel good

Visible to only the ones that see it, comprehension is key to mindfulness without the formation of words. Understanding reality starts with an overstated practical knowledge of instinctual bias in relation to originality and symbiotic confluence.

I didn't want to switch the lecture of...and return to the horrors of the world.

I want to to acknowledge during this experiment it caused me to urinate in my frigerator and later have to understand that I had to go back in to clean out the urine out of my refrigerator it was not a cleansing experience does an odd experience

08:12 - what a bizarre facial expression!

Listen to the Heyrman Lecture at Brown University by Joseph Goldstein. A wise Brown University student who took a MBSR course figured out how JKZ hides the fact that all what he is talking is from the teaching of Buddha. He is still in denial mode to accept it at 74 years old practicing mindfulness at .Insight Meditation Society- A place where the classical roots of The Theravada Buddhism meditation is taught. If you go to the IMS website you will see pictures of him getting preached by Asian scholarly monk of Theravada Buddhism.This guy is an enterprising man who rebranded the product for the American Society hiding the fact that all what he is preaching is from pure Buddhism. The words that he mentioned in this lecture such as compassion,equinimity, Silva, vipassana are all words and meanings from the classical Buddhist meditation which goes back 2500 years or more to South East Asia where Buddha was born. This guy is a hypocrite. He discovered the innovate product of MBSR while sitting at a vipassana meditation practice at IMS. Please do your own research.do not follow him. Buddha’s teaching is for all human beings. It is a philosophy, it is a science of the universe. I am sure Brown University students are smart enough to discover the truth.
