许多不成熟行为的根源是一种逃避不愉快感受的冲动。 练习观察自己的感受是自我完善的基础 – as well as being one of the most natural, simple and actually pleasant exercises of self-awareness. I cannot emphasize enough how important it is. You can practice this at any time, in most circumstances and situations. Not only you will not lose awareness of the world around you; it will probably improve.
Remember moments when you felt in great danger: probably you felt like time was running much slower, your focus sharpened and your actions became better coordinated. This is a spontaneous increase of awareness. We cannot stay in such a state for long, it is too tiring – but we can practice it consciously.
这样一项简单的工作可以产生深远的影响 福利:

The results are therefore worth the effort and time invested! You can start immediately without any foreknowledge or preparations. You do not need a specific space, equipment or setting – all you need is yourself and motivation for long-term daily practice.
如何进行练习?
Sit and relax at any time of day when you have some time (with some practice, you’ll eventually be able to do it for a very short time too, even automatically in the background of your mind). Pay attention to your body. Notice 如何通过身体感知情绪: perhaps through feelings of warmth or chill, pain, pressure, pangs or comfort. Notice how your thoughts trigger physiological responses; even if it might be difficult to recognize in the begginning, with time you’ll notice how such physiological reactions often influence new thoughts. The result is subtle inveawing of emotions and thoughts.
Keep on simply observing what is going on in your body and emotions. Don’t try to explore it in detail at this point. Don’t try to hold on to any emotion, or to make them stronger or weaker. 接受并放手.注意它们是如何流动的,如何相互跟随的。以后还有机会探索和改变它们。但首先,你需要培养意识。
Don’t identify with any emotions, especially if it’s unpleasant. Notice, accept, let go. Imagine you are standing in a river: you are not letting it carry you away, but you are aware of the flow. You feel it, but you don’t try to hold it back or change its direction. Once you are able to feel 同时有几层不同的情感, as well as emotional impulses that only last a second or less, you’ll know you are doing well. This will be a good time to focus on exploring the roots of chronic emotions you want to change.
