2nd January – A mindful moment
A moment of mindfulness.
Find a moment of mindfulness somewhere during the course of your day. This is not doing a formal mindfulness practice or a whole session, instead finding opportunities to be mindful throughout the course of the day. It can be something incredibly simple and everyday, such as waiting for the kettle to boil and listening to the sounds it makes, watching the leaves on the trees move, or noticing how your feet feel when you walk.
❄️❄️❄️❄️For me, this morning I was lucky enough to be stood in a snow shower, and whilst waiting for my car to defrost enough to be able to drive to work safely, I spent a minute watching the snowflakes fall in the pre-Dawn dark, lit by the streetlights. ❄️❄️❄️❄️
Mindfulness can help reduce stress levels, and in turn reduce stress-related health problems, which includes many different type of problems, both physical and mental health issues. It’s amazing how such a simple thing can make such a big difference.
