Loving mindfulness is a state of consciousness where we focus our
undivided
attention on the "here and now", in a spirit of openness to all
experiences and to life. This is associated with a relaxed
orientation in the present that does not want to change anything and
does not judge, but is alert and attentive to what is reflected in our
perception.
Loving Mindfulness has four roots for an
intentional
consciousness
- on the body
- on the feelings and
sensations
- on the thoughts
- on the perceptions of
the mind
In contrast to concentration, a focus mindfulness comprises an
opening of our perspective, an "all-around-awareness", which also
includes the possibility of unexpected perceptions. This is accompanied
by a loving inner serenity where quick decisions certainly will be
possible, but they arise out of the moment and include superordinate
aspects the mind alone could not comprehend. These, too, are the
moments we experience as a state of happiness.
Thus loving mindfulness is the ideal state in which we can perceive our
bodies and our organs beyond the anatomical facts, a state of mind
where we come in touch with our inner awareness and the awareness of
the organs.
