How can you easily fit mindfulness into your life?  One easy way.

12/1/2019

 
Have you been trying to fit mindfulness into your life?  Looking for an easy way to do it?  What to know more about what mindfulness is - have a look here.  For one practical way of introducing it in your life keep reading .....

Creating new habits can be really hard, particularly if you are trying to do it alone.  

One way that helps is to link your new positive habit with something you already do.  This means instead of creating a whole new life to fit a habit, you fit the habit into your existing life.

One example.  Most mornings I go for a walk along the same path.  I am incorporating mindfulness by paying attention each walk to something different, or looking at the same thing differently.  The photos on this page were both taken on the same path, but largely on different days.  This is my monthly challenge, and I am posting on Facebook and Instagram.  

If you would like to join the challenge come and join us.  Or let us know how you easily fit mindfulness into your day.

If you would like to have a go at making changes in your life by starting small and supported, have a look at our 7 Steps to Change challenge.

If you are interested in mindfulness have a look at these two posts which are a sample of my writings on mindfulness.  MIndfulness and crocheting and Mindfulness and Driving.
