@7rin Don't think you are looking for in mindfulness. Think of clouds. You can look, but cannot control them. Let them pass across the sky.

@7rin Hyper vigilance, in this context, is trying to exert agency over the passing clouds. Let them all be and they move effortlessly

@7rin ...effortlessly, even though sometimes the storm underneath is uncomfortable and sometimes even dangerous.
