As life unfolds, moment by moment, we can find ourselves in a place of well being - we feel stable, yet flexible to adjust to the moment by moment unfolding experience.
\nThis is when we feel in the flow.
\nDr Dan Siegel calls it the River of Well Being.
\nOutside this river of well being are the banks of chaos and rigidity.
\nWhen we find ourselves in the river of well being, it means our brain is working in integration.
\nOn either of the two banks, or brain is dis-integrated.
\nThe formal and informal practices of mindfulness promote integration in the brain and also develop the self awareness to know when we have drifted to one of the banks.
\nWhen we know we have drifted into chaos or rigidity, there are actions we can take to get ourselves back to well being.
\nI share one such exercise in today\u2019s episode.
