… in a meditation, mindfulness context — though not neceserilly meditation techniques.

Like I remember one–I forget the medical name–I found in a meditation-type article that said something like to inhale as deeply as you could, allowing the lungs to take in as much air as naturally possible, through the nose I think, then to exhale as much air as you could, through your mouth.

Stuff like that. Maybe if I could incorporate some of the techniques utilized in relaxation and transcendental types of lifestyles into my moment-to-moment motion … I could slowly get back into mediation.

Meditation" By: Arinna Weisman and Jean Smith ?

It is from a Theravada Buddhist Perspective.
Quite excellent reading, teaches Loving-kindness
Meditation, Mindfulness Meditation, and Insight Meditation, (the hindrances to meditation) Teaches the Middle Way {Eightfold Path), the Divine abodes, and so much more interesting information.

Was just curious if anyone has read, studied (and practices these teachings of Siddhartha Gautama) ?

Buddhism: - ultimate reality vs conventional reality - impermanence, which leads to non-self - inability to sustain, therefore dhukkha the first noble truth - 4 natural elements - eye consciousness and its relation to mind - mind and its relation to thought & reality and meditation - mindfulness - concentration

When I was a previous religion all it really had to teach me was "looks complicated, so god made it. Praise god for creating eyes and trees. In heaven the trees are even better than this one, I hope I see more good trees after death".

I’ve heard all the horror stories, Hear all the bad things that have happened with effexor… and I have exhausted all other options including meditation, mindfulness, yoga, herbal remedies, St. Johns Wort, and so on. I tried SSRI’s to no avail. So now I am anxiously trying effexor for depression and anxiety … Has anyone had good experiences with it? I’d like to hear some good things to reduce my anxiety about the med. I get really worked up about them. Thank you.
