Warrior One Lawyers

Warrior One Lawyers Mindfulness for the Legal Mind Lawyers are at the front lines of personal, moral, ethical, and cultural battles. We often know or can sense this.

Much of our work places us directly in the midst of conflict and hostility. At the same time, being an effective advocate requires both composure and clarity, two qualities that are difficult to maintain in high-conflict situations. Instead, we typically react the way we were trained: competitively and with aggression. This can be unproductive, even harmful to our clients and reputations. We can a

lso change it. But we need smarter, saner ways to practice law. We need the power of mindfulness. Essential Mindfulness for Lawyers® is an exploration of the mind from a scientific and experiential perspective. Warrior One offers this comprehensive mindfulness training, as well as individual coaching, that helps legal professionals cultivate effectiveness and wellbeing by developing greater intellectual and emotional range and control.

Don’t Let Your Heart Run Scared

I notice that far too often, I let my mind run wild. I don’t mean I’m completely undisciplined – I have a meditation practice and you probably do, too. So we’re not completely undisciplined. But I don’t know about you: when I look at the news, my mind tends to run wild.

Looking more closely, though, I realize it’s not so much mind running wild, as heart running scared. I see or hear something, and my heart automatically runs. Or contracts. And the mind follows, and the wildness starts.

But wildness isn’t a forgone conclusion. When I can stay with my scared, contracted heart, and gently invite it to open, I see what’s really happening: I’m so sad, because of how much I care. And then, everything can change: the heart can soften, the mind has more choices, and wisdom might even arise. And sometimes not only wisdom, but love.

Taking Joy in a Knock on the Nose - This week on the Wake Up Call:

Listen or watch the latest Warrior One Podcast: https://warriorone.com/podcast/taking-joy-in-a-knock-on-the-nose/

My general reaction to those little life lessons, the AFOGs, has not been delight. Instead, I’ve often felt affronted or like I’ve messed up or failed.

I’m starting to see how to meet those lessons a little differently, though: with joy. Which means I have to laugh at myself, and at the ancient, cement-like, internal structures that feel like they kept me safe…and are no longer useful.

Which isn’t easy, but is at least more and more possible. Because no matter how hard the lesson – no matter how painful those knocks on the nose – when there’s joy instead of offense and ease instead of despair, it feels like the opposite of failure. It feels like freedom.

It feels supportive to share about what we’ve read or come to understand about kindness and connection. I’m as guilty as the next person of doing that – probably more guilty. Just ask me – I’m happy to share.

But the real wisdom is in walking the walk. If I’m talking about how we belong to one another but in my next move, I’m in a “we/they” conversation, how is that helpful? If I’m not only acknowledging but embracing everyone, things can shift.

This kind of mindfulness “on the ground” feels aspirational. It also might be our only way out of the mess we’ve created.

Creating Happiness - This week on the Wake Up Call: Listen or watch the latest Warrior One Podcast: https://warriorone.com/podcast/creating-happiness/

Creating happiness when so much seems to be crumbling before our very eyes – sometimes that feels like a challenge. But what works for me is the moment-to-moment feedback loop.

When I speak and act with goodness, even in conflictual or adversarial moments, the goodness makes me feel happier. Not happier because I’ve given something up – I’m not doing that – I’m standing my ground – but happier because I’m standing my ground with generosity or curiosity.

When I forget to do that – when hatred or greed gets the better of me, which is definitely not never – it feels pretty terrible. When I remember, there really is happiness. It’s something to check out, this personal feedback loop. And see if it works for you, too. See if it brings you a little moment-to-moment happiness in this crazy world.

Yesterday on the Wake Up Call, in the mediation we explored Goodness in Each Moment.
When I speak and act with goodness, even in conflictual or adversarial moments, the goodness makes me feel happier. Not happier because I’ve given something up – I’m not doing that – I’m standing my ground – but happier because I’m standing my ground with generosity or curiosity.
