How not to become unconsciouss?

[thierry]

How do you avoid being pulled into unconsciousness when everything seems to drag you toward it? When health issues, traumas, and injustice affect a person how do you stop yourself from slipping into unconsciousness? Does anyone have a technique? I read Leo’s post about the UFC. How do you avoid becoming one of them, when your mind screams violently every morning, when both your body and your spirit are sick? How do you stop the process when u are already "half a demon ? When you already started doing weaked stuffs to please your lower self and became too weak to refuse doing those? Anyone got a real technique for this?

Try to just describe what your body is doing and what is happening around you when you navigate life. If you get into this mindset you will be able to clearly see everytime you sway to something thats not happening and that its not you saying it.

When waking up in the morning, the mind is about as clear and disengaged as it will be for the remainder of the day. That is the best time to consciously attune to/as Presence. It's not an entity or anything one has to search for or find, it already is... just notice it upon awakening.

The earlier in the morning you do this, the better. Don't even get out of bed. Just, the second you realize you have awoken, just hang in that state, and start taking deep breaths, feeling Presence as one's entire Being. No mind, no body... just Presence breathing... a sense-feeling. Slowly, the breathing will happen at its own depth and pace. Perfection.

If you have a monkey mind and thoughts just keep coming up, no problem. Just take deep breaths of/as Presence that 'swoop up' the thoughts and exhale them into the ether of existence. Do the same for bodily pain; just inhaling the pain in Presence, and release.

Always notice Presence that always is and available every morning before engaging mind for as long as one can and/or likes. It's own reward.

Typically what happens is that the clarity of/as Presence that engages mind consciously will nurture a quality of thought and subsequent intuition, decisions, or reactions. The more attuned one is to the ever-available Presence throughout the day (it ain't always easy, sure), the more conscious one is of engaging the mind. Have time before-during-after lunch? Sure, settle into it (it won't be as easy later in the day due to the mind's momentum... no problem), but it will be easier as you notice it more and more as ever-Presence. It's own reward.

Conscious.
