https://mindfulnessisnotajerk.wordpress.com/about
Mindfulness Is Not A Jerk. A girl making sense of meditation. Hi I’m Shannon. I write things. This blog is one of the things. I like coffee. And rock climbing. And chocolate.

Mindfulness Is Not A Jerk. A girl making sense of meditation. My Brain Doesn’t Want Me To Meditate. May 22, 2015. April 8, 2016. Image: Oh My Disney. I bet I would be a lot better at meditating if I wasn’t constantly being sabotaged. I can sit down with the loftiest of intentions in the world, but it never takes long for the mutiny to commence.

Mindfulness Is Not A Jerk. A girl making sense of meditation. My Love Hate Relationship With Mindfulness. May 24, 2015. April 8, 2016. Contrary to what the title of this blog would have you think, I have something to clarify:. I do, in fact, believe mindfulness is a jerk. Welllllll, perhaps that’s not true. It’s half true. Sometimes meditation and I get along. Sometimes we don’t. It’s a bit of a tenuous relationship. And I’d like to explore that. I would also like to address what could read as a disrespe...

We are going to have a serious relationship now. We are going to take things to the next level. Shit is gonna get. I’m going to become all zen and shit.
