What we practice grows. Without awareness we tend to react to what is happening around us. We are like a pinball machine pinging up and down at the mercy of what comes our way. Developing awareness through mindfulness practice allows us a choice. Do we want to react with anger, fear, frustration, overwhelm, or is there another way to respond? Can I practice joy regardless of the situation? Can I practice love regardless of the circumstances? Can I be at peace with things as they are, even if I don't want them to be that way? Practicing mindfulness allows us to choose what we want to grow.

8 week mindfulness course starting in September 💜

The easiest way to start a mindfulness practice is by paying attention to your breathing. Set an intention to practice everyday even if just for a few breaths or up to a few minutes.
How?
Close your eyes and bring your attention to the breath. As it comes and goes notice any sensations you can feel. Maybe feeling some movement and perhaps some other sensations around the nose, the chest or the belly. If you are finding it difficult to notice anything that's fine, just keep paying attention to the parts of the body involved in breathing.
Remember:
You are not trying to change the way you are breathing; you are just paying attention to the breath however it already is.
Your mind will likely wander; just notice when this happens and refocus your attention on the breath.
Doing this practice is not intended to be miraculous; just notice how you are feeling at the start and at the end, perhaps something has changed.

Our September group are almost through their first week of mindfulness practice. Keep up the good work! This week we've been focusing on our breath. As you read this take a moment to take one slow steady inhale and then a slow gentle exhale. With the breath out let go of the week's struggles and ease yourself into the weekend

An act of self-compassion is something your future self will thank you for. It can be big or small. Today I'm going to make a big pot of soup and freeze it in portions so I have nutritious ready-made lunches for the week, I know my mid-week self will be very thankful!

What one thing could you do today that your future self will thank you for?
