Mindful Reflection #15: Trust

Trusting others is one thing. Trusting yourself is something else completely. Logically, we all know that we should trust ourselves before anyone else, but how do you build that sort of confidence?

I’ve finally attained self-control during different difficult situations and feel more at peace. I am more sensitive to people and take more time to react very differently than before. Even my co-workers have commented and appreciate my new approach. I look forward to continuing my training.
Alexandra Evangelia
At first, I thought that committing to three times a week was way too much, but as I started to participate I realized that this time spent working on mindfulness was truly worth its weight in gold. You can bring these lessons with you everywhere you go. As a result, I find myself calmer, more focused and less reactive in my daily life. Give it a try, I promise you’ll get way more than you give.

Thank you very much for the wonderful mindfulness training. It was thought-provoking and calming at the same time. My practice is well established. I believe that I am on my way.

Stephen's talks/discourses are very interesting for me; I'm also an ex-monk and very immersed in normal life now, and being able to once again discuss and digest what drew me to meditation and the thoughts/challenges associated is not something I thought I would be able to do again. Mindfulness Live and Stephen’s approach is so good for both beginners AND those who are a bit more experienced.

I've been to many meditation teachers over the last 20 years, and Stephen is refreshing and relevant in a way I've never quite encountered before. With his background of "outgrowing" traditional cultures and integrating modern psychological understanding, it really works for me. He's academically brilliant and yet that's just a small accent to his practical and humorous teaching style and instructions. MindfulnessLive is different to other online mindfulness services because it's live, not a set of recordings, and structured around themes; I also like the fact its regular short sessions rather than a few mega long ones. Has changed my life in many ways.

Content – RICH beyond expectation. Left me longing for more.
Amazing clarity...totally relatable, especially how to pay close attention to what the body is sensing/experiencing. I so appreciated learning that when you actually name/label what’s being experienced, you can truly let go. Your explanations are clear and non-shaming, and really hit home. This really is stuff you can get your teeth into.
