In this guided meditation, Jimmy (aka @that_meditation_guy) shows you how thoughts arise in the mind as either visual images that seem to be projected onto a mental screen or auditory sensations such as the inner monologue. By practicing this technique, you will teach the mind the disidentify from thoughts and in so doing, you will be less likely to get lost in the thought stream. You will learn how to step back from thought activity, and become the witness. This is extremely useful if you are prone to rumination, or anxious thought patterns. Even if you are not struggling with those issues, being able to notice thoughts as empty mental phenomena, rather than being lost in the story that the mind is telling, is a great skill to have. This skill is known as meta-cognition and is something you can develop with practice. Thoughts are never a problem in meditation, regardless of the technique being used. However, in this meditation, they are particularly useful. To use a software analogy, this technique makes thinking a feature of the meditation rather than a bug. Often when people meditate they find thoughts to be a nuisance (like a bug in a piece of software, something to be fixed) but in this guided meditation thoughts are an opportunity to gain insight into the nature of the mind. They are a feature that enhances the meditation experience.

04:54 Guided Meditation - Just Feel
29:05 Coming out the meditation and where for find more information
JUST FEEL is a mindfulness meditation technique designed by my teacher, Shinzen Young, and is based on his Unified Mindfulness system.
In this guided meditation you will discover how to use Noting and Labelling to explore physical and emotional feeling sensations in the body.
Noting means to notice and pay attention to something. Labelling means to say a label either out loud or in your mind.
In this meditation you will allow attention to freely float between physical and emotional body sensations. You will note (pour your attention into) what you find and use the label “feel” in order to stay on track and stifle the internal monologue (thoughts).
This mindfulness meditation technique cultivates mindful awareness. It increases concentration power and improves equanimity.
This is the perfect meditation technique for improving access concentration which is useful for vipassana, jhana and mindfulness based stress reduction.

In this guided meditation we will be learning a technique I call Do Nothing meditation, but it’s also known by other names such as Just Sitting, Shikantaza or Natural Meditation.
We won’t be training the mind, using a mantra or investigating the nature of consciousness. The idea here is to simply rest in the natural state, open awareness, without the pressure to fix, change or achieve anything.
This technique reveals through direct experience, that awareness is already free from suffering and nothing needs to be done for that to be achieved.Instagram: @that_meditation_guy
