"Automatic Pilot":

"Automatic pilot" is a term used to describe the experience of engaging in a sequence of behaviors seemingly without the need for any conscious thought on your part, just as the automatic pilot on a plane is programmed to take over the controls so that the pilot does not need to fly the plane. Although having an "automatic pilot" may seem very useful when we are engaged in routine tasks, it can rob us of our moment-by-moment awareness, such that realize that much of our life is lived on "automatic pilot" . In the 3-S program, you will increase your awareness of when your "Automatic Pilot" is robbing you of the benefits of mindfulness, and taking you away from your Spiritual path.
