Last week we talked about this year's second half. you know what that means about the summer don't you?! Despite the busyness and speed of the "lazy" days of summer, we can all take some time to stop, get quiet, and practice some mindfulness. Let's practice a little right now. Really! Just 90 seconds while you are taking time to read this. Take a moment to stand, relax your head and shoulders, and drop your arms comfortably at your sides. Feel all four corners of your feet (if you can be barefoot and/or outside, all the better) firmly on the floor or ground. Now take 4 or 5 deep breaths with a calming thought atached. For example, "I am totally at peace." or "All is well"
Add a breath mantra with each inhalation and exhalation. "I am breathing in joy. I am breathing out frustration." Use whatever you need in this moment.
Read the complete article here and come back and post your summer mindfulness thoughts and techniques. We all want to know so we can benefit too!
