Prince Harry recommends meditation

nadateturbe praising Diana acceptable but criticism not ?
On threads about the royals I criticise the Queen mother ,she
too is dead

I don’t agree with - she was hurt so it’s understandable that she
hurt others.

Anniebach why can you not leave Diana alone. You've made it quite clear more than once what you think of her. I find how you speak of her quite distasteful.

Yes.

Lucca what are the good reasons to have children photographed by the press having fun ? There is a reason but a good one ?

I don’t understand what you mean.

Learning to meditate has changed my life, and you are right MissA it’s just simply about being “in the moment” and not continually obsessing about the past and the future.
I am an over thinker and started meditating to relieve stress, and found it isn’t necessarily about sitting & feeling peaceful but becoming aware of how the mind works. An unexpected offshoot was actually liking myself better and feeling more compassion for others whom I found less likeable.
A class or guided meditation app works best when starting out.

I understand the arrangement to pose for the press at the start of a holiday, the bargain being the family will then be left alone, but why invite the press along to a day at a theme park? They weren’t there for the boys’ benefit.

They remind me s lot of my daughter and grandsons (and she could be a cow, too)

I loved them too MissA; unadulterated joy in all 3 of their faces.

I loved the pics of her and her boys.
They're the most natural ones I've ever seen of any royals.

I always understood that at the beginning of a holiday or day out, Diana would allow photographs to be taken so they could enjoy the rest of the time without being pestered, but of course I could be wrong.

Sorry I was answering NAdaturbe. About letting Diana rest. NOT anniebach

Harry doesn’t

Absolutely but I think it’s “in our dreams”
Just a thought.. Diana used the press of course but often for a good cause. Also if she arranged for her and the boys to be photographed having fun then good on her

There are plenty of people on here who talk about having one child who is more sensitive.
"We are only as happy as our happiest child" or something.
There are people lamenting the fact that their adult children have been through hell, working from home and having their children to look after as well.

Harry won’t let Diana go. All the paranoia about the press, wanting his family to have privacy (there’s a joke) - she and her problems are mentioned because Harry’s issues seem to be rooted in his perpetuation of his mother’s problems rather than moving on as William has.

We are not all the same . Just because William appears very grounded and mentally stable does not mean harry is wrong to struggle. I think about my two sons and their different reaction to my divorce

Yes sorry I meant to say it’s not you bringing Diana into it

Sadly Diana plus his feelings are the only currency Harry can offer. He needs to stop being so self-obsessed, to find something meaningful to do, and stop offering mental health advice when he has no training.

Unfortunately he has no decent advice from the hangers on around him, and he hasn't yet been able to recognise their motives.

Harry needs to make a list of all the people surrounding him who agree with every word he says and facilitate every idea he comes up with.

He should also make a list of any who dare to gently point out he might be hypocritical/out of touch/veering off piste/boring/ridiculous/or just plain daft.

He should then show the two lists to Meghan and get ready to make another list….Those who still have a job!

Well, let us set an example. Please

It's just about being "in the moment".
You can try to look at something and describe it to yourself, in detail.
The colour, the texture, and so on.
It means for those few minutes you are in the moment and not flitting off at a tangent.

I wish I could get into meditation. My mind always seems to be on overdrive. If I wake in the night, the second I open my eyes, my brain starts up and I struggle to get back to sleep.

Harry doesn’t

Let's allow Diana to rest in peace.

But yes Harry needs to focus on something else, more meaningful, every day.And i agree, should not dish out advice so easily to others, maybe he could get training in all of the stuff he is advising? Give him something to do to be helpful, & be proud of?

Lucca

I might well agree with you about Harry but I see no reason to have a go about Diana yet again

That's how I feel.

I prayed, every day, for the scientists,& medics, to discover a vaccine for covid19, right at the start of the pandemic-as I'm sure many did- (and thank God, it worked) I'm not a big churchgoer, but i do believe. I don't know much about meditation, but am sure it must work for some folk.I think 10-20 mins just sat relaxing is just as good for some of us, just to slow down, take a small break.?
