Mindfulness vs Meditation: You don’t need to meditate for mindful living
In this episode of Coffee with Karen, host Karen Roberts sits down with Aline Ra M, a spiritual guide, healer, writer, and facilitator. Together, they explore various topics from a mental, physical, and spiritual perspective, including the pillars of Aline's work, her personal journey, and the importance of mindfulness, meditation, self-awareness, and self-compassion.
Aline emphasizes the importance of joy, presence, clarity, connection, and devotion as the pillars of her work. She guides her clients so that they have a path instead of shooting with disconnected practices all the time. Her spirituality is practical and grounded in everyday life and leads to empowerment and liberation. Aline's spiritual journey started at a young age, and she had mystical experiences that led her to understand the world beyond what others could see. However, it wasn't until she had a breakdown in her late twenties that she linked spirituality with wellbeing and focused on personal development and self-care.
Karen and Aline discuss the fear that often stops people from pursuing their dreams and how creating awareness, distance, and time can help overcome that fear. Aline's story is a reminder that it is never too late to follow our dreams and that taking small steps towards our goals can lead to significant progress. They also discuss the ways in which our ego can hold us back from being present in the moment and fully experiencing the things we enjoy. The hosts explore the notion that we have become addicted to fear and worry, and that this is a part of our ego's mission to make us suffer. Instead, we need to learn to be fully present in the moment and appreciate the experiences we are having.
The hosts also touch on the idea that many people struggle to meditate because they have become addicted to the fear of things, and that anxiety and stress are major issues for many people. The hosts suggest that this is often because people misunderstand the purpose of meditation. Instead, we need to focus on the things that bring us joy and make us happy. The hosts argue that we need to approach meditation from a place of self-love rather than as just another thing to achieve.
Another concept explored in the podcast is the notion of trusting oneself and the universe, and how this leads to freedom and joy. The hosts reflect on how we have been conditioned to ignore our inner voice and encourage listeners to trust their intuition and not to listen to their ego, which is trying to keep them too busy to see who they are. They discuss the link between presence, joy, and connection, and how they are intertwined. They also provide some simple practices to increase joy in day-to-day life, such as setting a daily intention and being present.
Finally, the hosts discuss the concept of self-awareness and how it can help people shift their emotional reactions and develop a greater sense of joy and love. They highlight the importance of developing true self-compassion as a key element in this process, as it can take a long time to reprogram years of conditioning. They encourage listeners to practice self-compassion and stop listening to the ego, as this is key to mastering their emotional wellbeing. The hosts acknowledge that the process can take time and that people need to be patient with themselves and not give up too soon.
Overall, this episode of Coffee with Karen offers a thought-provoking reflection on how we can find freedom and joy by trusting ourselves and the universe, being present, developing self-awareness and self-compassion, and not letting our ego hold us back from fully experiencing the world around us. The conversation between Karen and Aline is insightful and inspiring, reminding us that taking small steps towards our goals and dreams can lead to significant progress and transformation in our lives.
