Buddhist Mindfulness - Bhante Vimalaramsinaamaruupa
A brief introduction to buddhist meditation as taught by Bhante Vimalaramsi.
"Meditation is observing how mind's attention moves moment-to-moment in order to see clearly and precisely 'HOW' the impersonal process of Dependent Origination occurs."
"How you manage your attention today influences your life tomorrow. The great opportunity of our time is to harness our inner technology … to learn to fully optimize nature’s most powerful operating system: the human mind. Mindfulness is a mental discipline for developing personal awareness and mastery of one’s inner life." Bess Gallanis at Ignite Chicago on February 6, 2012.
Mindfulness. It’s a pretty straightforward word. It suggests that the mind
is fully attending to what’s happening, to what you’re doing, to the space you’re
moving through. That might seem trivial, except for the annoying fact that we
so often veer from the matter at hand. Our mind takes flight, we lose touch with
our body, and pretty soon we’re engrossed in obsessive thoughts about something that just happened or fretting about the future. And that makes us anxious.

We are used to hearing about the benefits of mindfulness for everything from relieving stress to making chocolate tastier - it is even being employed by the US military to improve their troops' performance levels.

Stress is the body's reaction to pressure or demands placed on it that can negatively impact mental and physical health if prolonged. Stress can be positive by motivating performance but becomes negative if unrelieved. Most stress is self-generated from irrational beliefs and perceptions rather than external factors alone.

Stress is the body's reaction to pressure or demands placed on it that can negatively impact mental and physical health if prolonged. Stress can be positive by motivating performance but becomes negative if unrelieved. Most stress is self-generated from irrational beliefs and perceptions. Managing stress involves changing thinking patterns, behaviors, and lifestyle habits like exercise, diet, and relaxation. Strategies include reframing problems positively, asserting control over time, taking breaks, joining social support, deep breathing, exercise, and maintaining a balanced lifestyle.

1) The brain is hardwired for survival and operates largely on autopilot through established neural pathways. Diets trigger fear responses that can shut down decision-making and sabotage change efforts.
2) Stress from dieting impacts the brain in ways that make weight loss difficult such as increased cortisol, impaired memory and decision making. Diets also lack nutrients needed to produce neurotransmitters.
3) Making lasting changes requires retraining the brain by developing new habits through mindfulness, increasing self-care, finding intrinsic motivation, and surrounding oneself with a community of support. Decreasing stress through managing time and finding safe spaces also helps.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

Workshop close
4. What is resilience?
The ability to ‘bounce back’ from adversity, or
rise above a situation
The capacity to handle challenges &
opportunities of work & life by doing things
which include:
– Recognising the signs & symptoms that for you
indicate your resilience is slipping - your stressors and
physiological responses
– Knowing the best way to ride life’s ups & downs for
you to stay well, feel energized and in control
– To act in a resilient manner
5. Resilience and Stressors
Stressors can have quite a number of different characteristics:
• External, physical stimulus (heights or a loud noise).
• An event, (loosing your job, divorce, starting a new role).
• An internal thought or worry. For example you suddenly
think that you forgot to turn off the stove – no event has
occurred but the stressor is real.
• Long term like a family member with an ongoing illness or a
debilitating injury or dissatisfying job, or it can be acute like
a sudden shock. It can be in the past (bereavement) or in
the future as an anticipated negative event, like a public
speaking engagement.
What are your stressors? Make a list of 5.
6. Resilience - Response
• We often respond whilst we are feeling the effects of the
emotional response.
• What does that look like for you? Think about how this
affects your behaviour at work and home.
• What sort of impact do you think this will have on your
teams/colleagues/family?
• We have a choice in how we respond. You may not be
responsible for the events in your life but you are in control of
your response to those events.

Building
Relationships connecting and sharing how we
feel with others provides us with the
opportunity to vent our feelings and
reconsider how we want to be
feeling about an issue
when expressing our emotions we
do begin to feel differently
others might also provide us with an
additional perspective on how we
feel – it’s not about judging you!
19. Building resilience through building
relationships

a leader’s intentional use of
Relationships conversation as a core process to
