I DONT CARE IF YOU LIKE STEVEN UNIVERSE OR NOT

If you suffer from Anxiety, Depression, Disassociation, Intrusive thoughts, or any number of things that take you away from a healthy head-space then this song is for you. This song is a template for a coping mechanism. This will walk you through a legitimate method of addressing intrusive thoughts and working through them in order to ground yourself. I cannot express how important this is- for people like me who suffer from these moments all the time this song is so important.

Garnet is teaching Stevonnie Mindfulness meditation. Its a practice to help ground a person to the present moment. This is a lifesaver for people with heavy, constantly running, and wandering minds.

With Mindfulness Meditation you are allowing yourself to pull away from your thoughts and to focus on whats going on right then and there. The rhythm of your breathing. The weight of your limbs and the pull of gravity. The tension you may have been holding in spots you didnt know you were. And your thoughts. Being mindful is not meant to quiet your thoughts. Sometimes they’re as automatic as your beating heart. Its not meant to get rid of your pain, either. But you’re able to pull away from thoughts and emotions. You can observe them without being a part of them. You can watch them and not relive it. After all, you cant relive the past and you cant predict the future…all you ever have is the now. I live with Anxiety and Depression and this is the most effective and most powerful coping skill I have. It doesnt require anything extra [ you just need yourself and a quiet spot ] , you can do it just about anywhere , and, if practiced enough, you can learn to do it on the go. Its great for emergencies. Garnet was an amazing teacher for this, but the person I learned Mindfulness from is Eckhart Tolle. If you want some more help, I would suggest reading his book, The Power of Now.
