🌿One thing nearly every one I meet finds the hardest in life is to quiet the mind.
We need to control our minds, not allow our minds to go off on a tangent making situations and problems up or worse than they need to be.
What we put in our minds speaks to every cell in our bodies,so if we can spin our thought around to be more positive with more gratitude that in turn brings more peace to our bodies.
Ways to help us create more peace in our mind and our bodies :
🌿Use 4-7-8 breathing. Inhale for 4 counts, hold for 7, exhale for 8. This activates your body’s relaxation response.
🌿Do a body scan. Notice tension in your body from head to toe without trying to fix it. Just observe with curiosity.
🌿Make routine tasks mindful. Pick one daily activity like brushing teeth or making coffee and do it with complete attention to physical sensations.
🌿Write thoughts down categorically. Brain dump into “actionable” and “not actionable” columns. Schedule time for the first, release the second.
🌿Ground yourself in nature. Use the 5-4-3-2-1 technique outdoors,notice what you see, hear, feel, smell, and taste in natural settings.
🌿The goal isn’t to stop thinking but to observe thoughts without being controlled by them. Start with whatever feels easiest.
🙏
