direct experience

Lohbado watched a Pema Chodron video in which she mentioned direct experience. A moment of awareness happens. The moment quickly gets slathered over in mental chatter. Lohbado found it helpful to pay attention to sight and sound. When his mind went too fast and anxiety surged, pause, have a look, take a photo. Take a deep breath. Let go. There's no shortage of photogenic subjects in Montreal.
