Give Up || The Do Nothing Project with Jeff Warren

Meditation starts at: 11:51 Meditation length: 26m49 (38:40) Sometimes you have to give up. Sometimes your own fixation on something is getting in the way of what’s good for you. This was true for Jeff. He knew that fixation was not healthy. It is only when he gave up that intense fixation, that the space was cleared in his life for the next thing to happen. There’s a moment of needing to let go and trust that you’re going to be ok, even if its the last thing you feel like is true. When you genuinely and sincerely do that, you find yourself connected to resources and opportunities that were being obscured by your doubt and your fixation. ========================== What is the Do Nothing Project all about? This is an experiment in doing … not much. Together. Every Sunday at 8pm EST, Jeff will come on his YouTube page, badly lit, maybe a bit disheveled. Or there will be a guest host. He’ll say some words of greeting, and then guide a 25-minute meditation that you can feel free to ignore. The time can be used to meditate, or doodle, or to stare vacantly into space repeating ‘the humanity, the humanity.’ The whole thing has a nice community feel, with people from around the world accomplishing nothing together. If you miss a broadcast (like maybe you have a “job”), it will be archived on this YouTube channel, so you can watch it later, on your own timeline. “A certain amount of ordinary laziness would lend our culture the pleasant mellowness which it singularly lacks.” – Alan Watts If you want to receive email reminders every week about the next Do Nothing broadcast, you can subscribe to this list. http://eepurl.com/ghljtv ************************************************************************ Being human takes practice.
