The topic looks promising. This post already achieved a result: it made me realized that SA is quite likely improvable trough training, and not some sort of magical skill someone is born with (see Sherlock Holmes and pretty much every detective in every detective story). May seem obvious in retrospect, but reading these few lines made me aware of this chached belief of mine.
I’m looking forward to reading more about it.
Mindfulness meditation is situational awareness improving. Once you know what being mindful is, try and engage in it when you are doing things, walking, being. The more you do it, and the more often the closer it will come to being automatic, and the faster.
If you do this you also need to practice acting fast on information fast. See and act as close to instantaneously as possible. Easier said than done.

I briefly tried to google “mindfulness meditation” and this wiki page popped up. Please forgive my ignorance, is this what you meant? It does indeed look quite promising.
I see the two are indeed related, but thank you for pointing me in the right direction (and in general for letting me know of something I definitely wasn’t aware of).

Very close).

Yep. I’ve been practising that skill over the past few years, and I think I’m much better now.
I would really like to read about such kind of direct experience, but I guess it’s more appropriate to wait for the rest of the sequnce.
