Title: LPT: If you’re feeling low and unproductive, try meditation/conscious attention for a few minutes

Guid: t3_1h84i5e

Descr:

We all feel low at times. And when we do, we seek to fill the void with many different distractions resulting in behavior that is unproductive. But before you procrastinate and go on distracting yourself, try closing your eyes and observing your breath and inner sensations for just a few minutes. Probably you will notice many sensations you were unaware of. Maybe you will notice some emotional or physical pain. This is okay. Just be with those sensations for the time being. Notice that when you accept whatever is there at this very moment a certain peace and clarity of mind will come. It is about being aware and accepting that whatever is happening at this very moment cannot be any different than the way it is. So before you start dulling your negative feelings and thoughts, try to just be present with them - and you may notice that they often disappear the moment you give them some conscious attention.

Turning inwards for a few minutes is a great trick to focus one’s mind on what is important and dwarf whatever worries one has.

“The purpose of Meditation is to create the necessary inner ambience for you to live in Joy, Peace, and in turn unfold your genius.” - Sadh-guru

Try closing your eyes and just observe for a few minutes next time you feel low.

Title: LPT When shopping for insurance, look for companies that have the word "Mutual" in their name -- they are non-profit cooperatives owned by the policyholders, not stockholders

Guid: t3_1h83wej

Descr:

Regular insurance companies are there to make as great a profit as possible for their investors, and it can lead to sketchy rejections of claims etc. In contrast, Mutual Insurance companies are owned by the policyholders themselves, so the only motive for "profit" is to ensure that the organization has enough funds to continue operating, and as a result, they often offer better rates and service. They are sort of like the credit unions of insurance.
