discussing mindfulness. critical thinking. wed 30th.
we were tasked to read an article on mindfulness and make notes and connections to the set text from last week. these are some of the conclusions i came to.
i really struggled with the concept of mindfulness and how it differentiates from over-thinking. because, personally, i struggle with over-thinking and use times of ‘fastness’ to take a break from my own brain, and when i’m left for too long to think and fester without interruption i tend to fall into a deep brain hole i can’t get out of very easily.
i maybe just need to re-evaluate the meaning of mindfulness.
i found that the concept contradicted my ideas for psychogeography because it is about being overwhelmed (capitalism and consumerism) with everyday life.
