Mindfulness Edition 🧘🏻‍♀️

Today’s self care sunday is all about mindfulness and the practices you can use to give you that boost! When you hear the word “mindful,” it may sound boring. You may also think, “How do I achieve mindfulness?” When you search the definition for mindfulness online, it is defined as “focusing one’s awareness on the present moment, while calmly acknowledging and accepting one’s feelings, thoughts, and bodily sensations.” This requires intention, attention, kindness, acceptance, and non-judgemental thoughts of one’s self. It may not always be easy, but every time you notice you’re drifting away from this mindful state, bring yourself back with kindness. The more you practice, the easier and more enjoyable it gets. 

I’ve added art here. It’s something we don’t always think about when speaking mindfulness, at least I didn’t and tbh it may not be considered a mindfulness practice lol. But I sometimes find it easier putting my thoughts and feelings of the present moment into shapes and colors as opposed to words or silence.

Give these a try and let me know which ones you like or work for you!
