Consciousness How to be happy?A good way to be happy is to buy something new(e.g car,phone,book,home,clothes), but it's a worst way to be happy in long-run and I'm going to explain why.Recently I started to read a book about consciousness where I encountered the idea that we live too much in our thoughts and do not experience our live directly without judging or estimating or comparing.The first time I came across that idea, it was a podcast episode with Naval Ravikant,but this time I was ready to get the message.We maintain our expectations and try to match them with real life but our expectations are often unsatisfied.One bad event can empower itself so that you ruminate about that all day long.Researchs show that our aspiration to suppress thinking about bad events makes situation even worse. So what is the way out of this trap?Meditations! What you should do while meditating?Watch your mind. A little part of ourselves let's say it "monkey mind" is always chattering in our head and trying to destroy your peace of mind.I think, peace can always be converted to happiness.While meditating, you should only watch your thoughts and not try to suppress or criticize yourself.Watch yourself.
