I believe they just described meditation? It's a practice where you quietly reflect by yourself. It's not big yet or anything. There might be an app about it. Idk. Hopefully it catches on.
Well the shared article and the tweet are referring to social situations. But I like the thought of extroverts mediating at the party, dinner table or waiting room.
I'm trying to imagine a social situation where everybody is being quiet and reflective instead of talking and responding like the tweet is suggesting. My mind just keeps manifesting a prayer circle or something. 😅
Or somebody telling a story, and it going like:
"And it turned out it was a freaking SHARK!"
"...Hm..."
"Uh... Is something wrong?"
"No, I'm just... Thinking about it..."
"😦 All right."
As an extrovert that is about to go to a wedding reception, I'm just going to start vibing out and meditating in the middle of the dance floor. (As opposed to trying to get everyone to take shots and come join the party like I usually do) I will report back with results.
