Mindfulness

Ever wonder where our good and enjoyable times go as we rush through life???

Do you find that you are spending a great deal of time thinking about the future or the past . . .while the present slips by???

Is your mind racing, thinking ahead, worrying, judging and you are feeling anxious or overwhelmed?

Do you often put yourself on 'automatic pilot'?

Mindfulness is strategy to keep your attention in the present moment. 

Here are some tips to practice Mindfulness. . . . .

  • Remember to turn off the automatic pilot response!
  • Focus on the sensations you are experiencing
  • Live each second as fully aware as you can. . .
  • Attend to the here and now
  • Observe when your thoughts wander - refocus to the here and now.
  • Practice mindfulness as a way to think before responding to someone
  • The goal of mindfulness is to 'observe'.
