Feeling stressed, anxious or depressed? Well, give mindfulness a go. It's a science-backed tool that can help you find more ‘calm’ and guide you on how to live life more in the ‘now’. It's a tool to help you deal with life stresses and is an effective tool on responding to tricky thoughts, emotions and situations.
Mindfulness is a buzz word right now for good reason. It can help you to re-wire your brain so you can live a happier life that’s more in balance. It will inspire you to live life in a mindful way, and less mindless.
This wellness tool is useful too if you feel ‘stuck’ in unhelpful thought patterns. Mindfulness helps you to be more at the driving wheel of your own thoughts and reactions. It’s about attention training, thought training and having more emotional regulation. It gives you a better perspective too and makes you a better communicator.
The opposite of mindfulness is having knee-jerk reactions. And no one enjoys being around someone like that, right?
So how do you do it? The best way is to learn from a mindfulness teacher. They can teach you how to notice and consider what you think and feel – and then guide you on how to respond with a ‘wiser mind’. Lots of people will pay for a Personal Trainer to lose weight or build muscles. It’s smart to pay for someone to help you to train your brain to think better. After all, your brain is your most powerful tool.
For those of you who worry about having to sit down in a crossed-leg position for hours, saying ommmmmm; Don’t worry! Mindfulness is something you can integrate into your life with ease anytime. You can even do it while sitting for a few moments drinking a cuppa.
