MINDFULNESS, PSYCHOLOGICAL TIME, POSITIVE PSYCHOLOGY, NEUROPLASTICITY, THE UNCONSCIOUS MIND, THE TIME-LINE AND HYPNOTHERAPY MINDFULNESS
This is a subject which is so easy to do, once you’ve understood and started practicing it – that it can seem a little difficult to explain. However I will try now.
To begin with you will need to understand the idea of 3 different types of time:
- The Now and Present Moment
- Clock Time
- Psychological Time
The now and present moment is the only time we are ever really in and that would be ever moment we are in, once a moment has happened and been experienced its then in the past
“There are no ordinary moments” – Dan Millman
Clock time is the continuous running of the clock, the seconds running into minutes and hours, then days … weeks, months and years. Clock time is still important for many things such being at work on time, being on time for trains and planes (not that trains and planes always run on time)
Psychological time has 2 sides to it, the past and the future. From the past people can be in the grips of negatives feelings such as depression, sadness, resentment, grievances, bitterness and non-forgiveness. And towards the future people can feel that they experience anxiety, unease, tension, stress, worry and fear.
Things which happened in the past, happened in the past and if there is something that you are hanging on to or that you feel won’t let go, then you need to make a choice. The 3 choices are and maybe depending on the past situation or memory:
- Remove yourself from it
- Change it
- Totally accept it
In as far as the future, it hasn’t happened yet. So using your time, energy and imagination on something which hasn’t happened is not a good use of your time, your energy or your imagination.
Remember that we are only in the present and because we are only ever truly in the present then the past now doesn’t exist and neither does the future.
Being mindful, and using mindfulness and in the present moment therefore is the only place we will ever be and when things happen I the present which can make us feel negative – angry, resentful, anxious, bitter, start feeling down or worried for whatever reason – that although that will have a cause. The cause will be something within, within your thoughts and feelings or will be something you’ve noticed externally via your senses which will then cause an inner noticed thought or feeling. Basically there will be a feedback loop from inner and outer.
Using mindfulness you become aware of your present moment and the feelings and thoughts you are experiencing and awknowgle them, accept them and embrace them – whatever they may be. You can decide whether you want to:
- Remove yourself from a situation, circumstance or person (or combination).
- Do something to change it
- Totally accept it
All 3 of the above work because you are taking control and ownership of the situation, of as much as you can. Therefore you make a choice to gain control, gaining control of your mind, your thoughts, emotions and the situation.
And remember you’re only ever in the current and present moment. You’re never in the past or future. Mindfulness will show you this.
If there is something in the past which is real bother and sometimes that can be something you’re not fully aware of or maybe don’t remember the reason why it began, the root cause effectively. If there is a root cause and whether it is known or not it can be a good idea to seek some help in addressing this with the help of a highly trained and skilled therapist.
By using a time-line approach you can then access the memory where a problem started and then using hypnosis or NLP (or something similar) be assisted in being able to look, think and feel differently about the original significant emotion event.
Just to state here, with most people there will be very few things which will have such a negative effect on a person and there will be no need to spend any significant amount of time in therapy. For many, many people once you’ve dealt with the major issues the others, the smaller ones won’t seem as bad and in many cases they often resolve themselves.
