Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey there, fellow humans. Welcome back to the Art of detachment,
your daily dose of stoic wisdom, served with a side
of real talk. I'm your host, Logan Cruz, and today
we're diving into something super important, embracing your authentic self
through mindfulness exercises. Ever feel like you're playing a role,
putting on a mask for the world. You know that

(00:22):
feeling when you're trying to be someone you think people
want you to be instead of just being you. Well,
guess what that stops now. We're going full on self
acceptance mode today, folks. Here's the deal. Embracing your authentic
self isn't about becoming some kind of guru or walking
on water, though that would be pretty cool, right. It's
about peeling back those layers, getting comfortable with who you

(00:44):
truly are, flaws and all, and living a life that
feels genuinely yours. And guess what. Mindfulness exercises are your
secret weapon in this journey. They help you connect with
yourself on a deeper level, quiet the noise of your mind,
and become more aware of your thoughts, feeling and actions.
It's like hitting the pause button on autopilot and finally

(01:04):
getting to see things for what they truly are. So
here are five key takeaways to help you on this journey.
One self awareness is your superpower. Mindfulness exercises help you
become more aware of your thoughts, feelings, and bodily sensations.
It's like having a built in radar that alerts you
when you're starting to slip into old patterns or habits

(01:25):
that don't serve you. Two. Judgment is the enemy. We've
all been there, judging ourselves harshly for every little mistake
or perceived flaw. But listen up. Self criticism is like
a rusty chain dragging you down. Mindfulness teaches you to
observe your thoughts without judgment, letting them come and go
like clouds in the sky. Three. Acceptance is freedom. This

(01:47):
one's tough, I get it, but here's the truth. You
can't change everything about yourself, and trying to do so
is exhausting. Mindfulness encourages you to accept yourself fully with
all your strengths and weaknesses. It's like saying, Okay, this
is me, warts and all, and that's perfectly fine. Four.
Embrace the present moment. Ever, get caught up in the

(02:09):
past or worrying about the future. Mindfulness is all about
bringing your attention to the here and now. Savor the
taste of your coffee, feel the warmth of the sun
on your skin, Listen to the laughter of loved ones.
These are the moments that truly matter. Five. Your authentic
self is a work in progress. Remember, becoming your most
authentic self is a journey, not a destination. There will

(02:33):
be ups and downs, twists and turns along the way.
Be patient with yourself, celebrate your progress, and never stop
exploring who you were meant to be. Think about that
last time you were really caught up in something, maybe
an argument, a stressful deadline, or even just scrolling through
social media for hours. What was happening inside your head,

(02:53):
probably racing thoughts, worries, anxieties, and judgments swirling around like
a chaotic storms. Helps you step back from that mental
whirlwind and observe it with clarity and calmness. Let's say
you're feeling overwhelmed by a big project at work. Instead
of letting those negative thoughts spiral out of control, mindfulness
encourages you to take a few deep breaths, notice the

(03:15):
sensations in your body, and simply acknowledge those feelings without judgment.
You might even try to reframe those thoughts instead of
I can't do this. Maybe think this is challenging, but
I'm capable of finding solutions. So what's the takeaway here?
Mindfulness isn't just some fancy word for meditation, though it
does involve that sometimes. It's a powerful tool for cultivating

(03:39):
self awareness, accepting yourself fully, and living a more authentic life. Remember,
you are unique, valuable, and worthy of love just as
you are, so take those first steps towards embracing your
authentic self. Start with a few minutes of mindfulness each day.
See how it changes your perspective, your relationships, and ultimately

(03:59):

one small step you can take today to practice mindfulness
and embrace your true self. Share your thoughts in the
