This meditation exercise helps you get curious about strong emotions by naming the emotion you feel, noticing where you feel it in your body, and sitting with the feeling to investigate what triggered it and if it is useful.

This document provides instructions and encouragement for practicing meditation. It acknowledges common excuses for not meditating, such as lack of time or an inability to sit still, but argues that simple, short meditation practices can help create space in our busy minds. Two such practices are described: posture practice, which focuses on proper sitting position, and S.T.O.P., a 4-step technique for taking a break from stress that involves stopping, deep breathing, observing thoughts, and proceeding mindfully. The overall message is that giving meditation a try, even just twice, can help people become more mindful.
Anger and Eating
This document discusses how anger and frustration can sometimes lead people to cope by overeating unhealthy foods. It provides alternatives for dealing with anger such as deep breathing exercises, which can help calm intense emotions and allow people to think more clearly. Going for a run or joining a gym are also suggested as physical activities that can relieve stress and anger without overeating. The document advocates developing non-food strategies for managing anger to improve one's health and well-being.
Dealing with anger
This document discusses anger as a secondary emotion that often stems from primary emotions like hurt, jealousy, sadness, fear, stress, mistrust, guilt or disappointment. It notes that cognitions preceding anger can include thoughts like "I can't do this" or "Nobody disrespects me." The document advises knowing your triggers to avoid anger, identifying the physical signs of one's anger, using deep breathing and counting to calm the amygdala when feeling angry. It concludes by suggesting role playing to practice dealing with anger.

The document discusses different perspectives on conquering restlessness from various spiritual texts and teachers. It explains that restlessness arises from being identified with the constantly desiring mind rather than the knowing presence. Both Buddhism and Vedanta discuss observing feelings like boredom or restlessness with awareness in order to realize one's true nature beyond conditions. The Dalai Lama emphasizes that kindness and compassion are necessities to survive, and his simple religion is cultivating goodness within.

My Dear Sadhguru
This document discusses being devoted to the present moment through silence and awareness of one's actions and their impact. It suggests that with enough sensitivity, intensity and love, one can feel connected to all experiences. True devotees may not understand their purpose but feel a helplessness devotion through being overwhelmed by their spiritual experiences. One becomes what they think about most, so focusing energies on the highest ideals naturally draws one in that direction.

Wastage of thoughts
1. The document discusses how our own minds cause us problems through constant streams of thoughts about the past and future, and how we mistakenly identify with our minds instead of realizing we are greater beings.
2. It explains that enlightenment is the end of suffering and achieving a state of inner stillness and oneness with being, which our minds prevent through incessant mental noise.
3. The key is to free yourself from your mind by watching your thoughts and disidentifying from your mind so you can find gaps of no-mind between thoughts.
Inspiring story
1) The document summarizes a famous 2007 lecture given by professor Randy Pausch on achieving childhood dreams.
2) In the lecture, Pausch shared stories about his own dreams of being an astronaut, playing in the NFL, and other goals. He also provided life lessons and advice.
3) The lecture inspired millions and was later turned into a best-selling book. It encouraged people to pursue their dreams and look for the best in others.
