If you are the type of person who feels numb to a lot of life’s interesting chapters, you probably should listen to this. Johnny came on to the show several episodes ago and the topic of mindfulness was so interesting that I invited him for a second time to talk to us about emotions, especially at work. If you have gone onto a vacation before, you must have experienced post-trip depression and it does not feel nice. I try to dive deeper to understand what goes on in our minds when we feel bad about our current situation. Johnny, a mindfulness practitioner for years, shares with us how we should be mindful about our emotions because if we are not, we could be going into an endless loop of ideation, resonance, emotions and actions, always chasing the next high but failing to recognize reality. I think there are some truths to what Johnny describes, but is it really healthy to clearly recognize the reality and truth of everything? Being in the moment helps us seize the moment, and if our minds are somewhere else, we are always losing the moment that we think we could rewalk later in life. If there is one thing I learnt from this conversation, it is that I need to focus on the moment itself.  Timeline: [00:00] Should we multitask?
