First of all I want to say that all my believes and "knowledge" about psychology comes from thinking/analysis of my own living experience so probably I'm wrong. I just want to share my thoughts and hopefully somebody with studies or knowledge can read it and answer. Thank you!

Right now I'm 20 years old and this past years I would say I've not been living "right". The way I would describe it, is a continuous state of negativity/imprisonment of the mind that doesn't let you live your life and consequently, you are never happy. It's nothing severe and I don't want to go into details but after years of living in this state, I have noticed one remarkable thing that I’m never able to understand.

It turns out that although being in this never ending state, there are a few moments that it goes away and I’m free!! I can also notice them immediately whenever they are happening. Since I described the other state, I’m going to describe this one as well: A disconnection of yourself from your wandering mind that lets you live the moment, and make a full connection/focus with the present. A moment full of life, lucidity and clarity. Now, how often this moments come and how much time they last are relatively random. However, I can tell that they are usually triggered (but not always) after doing activities such as practicing hobbies, training, even working or just anything I do that requires all my focus and don’t think of anything else than what I’m doing. Also, I don’t think it has anything to do with moods, because I know people that there are continuously living in this state, one of them is the past me.This leads to the next point and my conclusion.

No matter if you are happy or sad, angry or calmed, etc. Whenever your mind is in this state of fullness, you are automatically thinking and acting yourself with all of your capabilities without limitations and, maybe you will behave in ways that lead you to happiness or sadness, but at least you would be living your complete/true self. You will never achieve happiness if you are limited by your wandering mind.

Having said all this, is there any scientific basis behind it? Could the eternal mindful state of mind somehow be the key to happiness? If so, what habits or activities should we do to achieve it?

I hope you can understand everything I tried to express, and appreciate the sharing of my thoughts as well as I appreciate you reading them.

All what you will experience in your life will happen withinyou. So obviously, i would say, internar mindfulness is the only way. Like you should broom your room, so you should broom your mind. You can easly do it with: say to yourself Word vasa.when you breath in va and when you breath out sa. Do it, it if you are experience it for 20 min if not do it for 2 min. You Just learn to think at minimum you are cleaning your mind... What wiill come next... Please write respond to me.....

Thank you. I understand the goal and process of meditation, I have tried it a few times (not on a daily basis) and I think I've done it correctly but never managed to clear my mind or achieve any change at all. I always end up where I started. Do you think this is because I don't practice it often enough or is it just a different thing that can't be solved by meditating?

Meditation can be used as a tool to help you clear your mind and get out of the endless loops that can play in your brain, but you have to put time and effort into it, practicing it regularly...

Like you cant act to be healthy, it is not a act, you do certain things and you are healthy - dont act, meditation is not a act.

Learn nothing to look up or down. Ask yourself: if smth. I Look up or down is it even possible to see things as they are ? At 20 energy is up. It is boring full cool or bad.... Nature want : even without knowledge you push things forward. Learn not to see things up or down but as they are... And learn to leave your body and mind alone. Dont talk yourself all the time this or that, people dont realize if you leave things alone then natural state of mind is happiness...

You can actually train your mind to interpret your senses /perception from negative interpretations into less negative or even positive interpretations. Once again it hinges on how your brain interprets circumstances. The old proverb of someone who steps into a pile of pooh and exclaims "well, it could have been worse, I could have had my good shoes on!" is an example...

Lets say you are in kitchen but you want to go to bedroom, it could take 10sec or 1y if you go to Paris first... Basic state of mind is always pure happiness, but nature want to make sure, for example, to make babys. She puts you in miserable state if you are without a girlfriend, physical pain, so she makes sure you go for it. Do you agree ? Nature want us to go Long way to happiness, because this mean you Will make sure that your body, mind,... Survive good. This is stage one, 2021 Stone age.
