Instead of noting my heart pounding panic as feeling, I note it as hearing.
It seems to help.
What do you think?
Because I can seem to hear my heart pounding.
Yeah, just be careful you're not too keen on it seems to help part, because you can get excited about it.
And then you think, OK, well, every time I say hearing, hearing, it's going to work.
There's no trick to enlightenment.
You have to deal with every moment appropriately.
And there's no single appropriateness, except mindfulness.
But it's such a slippery thing.
Hearing, hearing is not going to answer all of your problems.
And it's not going to even answer that problem every time, because the problems change.
And there's many things involved with them.
Maybe next time it's going to be the feeling that will be most distinct.
And so that's really the answer.
Whatever is most distinct, acknowledge that.
If it's hearing, then acknowledge hearing.
It doesn't matter what someone tells you to do.
It matters what you're experiencing.
So if I've told you before to acknowledge feeling, feeling, that's only if the feeling is most distinct.
Whatever is most distinct, focus on that and remind yourself clearly of it as it is.
