We made it folks! Lately my texts messages haven't been working. I'm still doing this... Lol.
My apologies if you feel like I'm doing this on purpose. You can always reach out to me. Yes you are awesome and I wouldn't want to forget you guys.
Anyhoo...
I hope you been having an amazing week.
Having that positive dialogue with yourself?
Visualizing that big goal of yours? Taking time to recite affirmations? Showing gratitude for your life? Appreciating the little things? Staying healthy and being mindful of all of the states such as, mental, physical, emotional, spiritual, and full expression of each?
I hope this reaches you and you can take time to assess these important habits I like to incorporate daily.
Here's some awesome mindful tips to help you start if you're not experiencing life the way you actually want to:
8 Mindfulness Exercises to Bring Calm and Clarity Into Your Day
In today's fast-paced world, mindfulness can serve as a powerful tool to help us find balance, peace, and a deeper connection to the present moment. Whether you're new to mindfulness or looking to expand your practice, these simple exercises will help ground you and bring clarity to your day.
1. 5-4-3-2-1 Grounding Technique
If you’re feeling overwhelmed or anxious, this sensory exercise can quickly bring you back to the present:
5: Look around and name five things you can see.
4: Acknowledge four things you can physically feel.
3: Identify three things you can hear.
2: Notice two things you can smell.
1: Focus on one thing you can taste.
This exercise engages your senses to create a powerful sense of presence and calm.
2. Box Breathing
Box breathing is a simple but highly effective technique for reducing stress and calming the mind. Here's how you do it:
Inhale slowly for 4 seconds.
Hold your breath for 4 seconds.
Exhale gently for 4 seconds.
Hold again for 4 seconds. Repeat this cycle 3-5 times to feel more grounded and at ease.
3. Body Scan Meditation
Body scan meditation helps you connect with physical sensations in your body, releasing tension and stress. Start by bringing awareness to your toes and slowly work your way up to your head, noticing any tightness or discomfort along the way. By the end, your body and mind will feel lighter and more relaxed.
4. Mindful Eating
Turn mealtime into a mindfulness practice by slowing down and paying attention to the experience of eating. As you take a bite, focus on the colors, textures, and flavors of the food. Chew slowly and savor each bite. This not only improves digestion but also helps you develop a deeper appreciation for your food.
5. Loving-Kindness Meditation
Cultivating compassion for yourself and others is key to a mindful life. In this practice, silently repeat positive affirmations such as:
"May I be happy."
"May I be healthy."
"May I be safe." Then extend these affirmations to loved ones, acquaintances, and even those you find challenging, wishing them the same peace and well-being. This practice nurtures empathy and kindness.
6. Breath Awareness
Sometimes the simplest practices are the most powerful. Set aside 5 minutes to sit quietly and focus on your breath. Pay attention to the inhale and exhale without trying to control it. If your mind wanders, gently bring it back to your breath. This practice anchors you in the present and fosters a sense of peace.
7. Mindful Walking
Take your mindfulness practice outside by paying attention to each step you take. Notice how your feet feel as they touch the ground, the rhythm of your movements, and the sensations around you. Whether it’s the sound of leaves rustling or the breeze against your skin, mindful walking brings awareness to the body and environment, promoting a feeling of connection and peace.
8. Gratitude Journaling
At the end of each day, take a moment to reflect and write down three things you are grateful for. It can be something as small as a good conversation or as big as achieving a personal goal. Reflecting on these moments fosters a mindset of abundance and positivity.
