Peaceful, Easy Feeling

Fred Rune Rahm, who I met on Diaspora, created this video on vimeo for the purpose of a lecture in mindfulness. Fred wrote the following notes on the vimeo page:

No exciting video, nothing happens. So this is kind of special.

Most will find this boring, but if you care to take the two minutes to watch, then do it mindfully:

Focus on video and music, focus on the moment right now.

Take on a non-judgemental stand, don't fight intruding thoughts and feelings, but reconize them, let them go, and focus back on the video. Accept the moment, - and relax.

I don't find it boring. In fact, when I'm in 'thinking mode' (which sometimes finds me staring blankly at the wall), I could watch a much longer version. It's in HD, so I highly recommend you watch it in full screen (click the icon at bottom-right between HD and vimeo), and you'll need patience to let it load if you have a slow connection.

Music is by Evgeny Grinko. And thank you, Fred, for introducing me to the Free Music Archive.
