⁠
reduces stress, promotes emotional health, controls anxiety, and enhances self-awareness.⁠
⁠
Where to begin? ⁠
1. Start small - 5 to 10 minutes a day. ⁠
2. Be real and ask yourself what type of practice speaks to you? ⁠
3. Have a special place with a comfortable pillow or place you like.⁠
4. Set a practice time with a clock or a timer.⁠
5. Reflect & adjust.⁠
⁠
Your coffee or tea can also be your morning meditation, where you can rest in : Start with one sip. Feel the warmth. Get your mug under your nose and inhale deeply. Feel the aroma! Breathe! Let go of your thoughts and enjoy your moment. Feel your feet, your hand, and your whole body in this moment. ⁠
⁠
Centered. Grounded. Calm.⁠
