Roses & Garbage: Finding Harmony in Cognitive Dissonance

Where there's garbage, there also must be a rose. Where there's darkness, there will be light.
Ever wondered how a rose and a pile of garbage could be connected? In this episode of 'Happy Mind: Meditations from the Ancient World to Modernity', you'll be introduced to the intriguing concept of cognitive dissonance through a unique meditation exercise. Inspired by Buddhist Master Thich Nhat Hanh's teachings, the host guides you to visualize a beautiful rose alongside a heap of rubbish, revealing that beauty and filth are two sides of the same coin.
This episode delves into how our minds hold onto tension and fear, often leading to stress and negativity, and how cognitive dissonance can help us let go of these emotions. By embracing opposites and finding balance, you can transform pain into compassion and uncover beauty in unexpected places. You'll learn practical tips for scanning your body and mind for discomfort, allowing yourself to feel and release these emotions, and ultimately finding peace.
Tune in to explore how accepting fear and suffering can lead to joy and love, and discover the power of mindfulness in transforming your mental health.
