Each moment we live is a chance to be mindful......

Hi
How did being a little more mindful work for you? It worked for me and has also made me a follower of mindfulness.

More tips to assist you along the way:

1. Stress-proof your brain-
stress is at the root of most of our problems..

2. Don't be as mindset as formerly-loosen up and listen to other ideas-be more open minded.

3. Mindfulness is a way of living, not just a practice. You will have more caring and awareness
in everything that you do

4. Anyone can learn to be mindful-it does not require you to change your beliefs and there will be     benefits.

5. In our complex world we need  mindfulness.

6. Think about times that you are most mindful.

Have a great week-and be mindful...Hippo

Who am I? I hardly know.....

When Alice fell down the rabbit hole -the Caterpillar approached her and ask her "who" she was?
She replied "I hardly know".

How is your "mindfulness" coming along?    I have been practicing.....

Each moment we live is a chance to be mindful and it is so important to be living in the present. That moment will never be repeated again. These are some of the tips that have helped me in the process.

1. Smile in public-you will feel better-energy exchange

2. Notice the position of your body while you are walking or sitting

3. Eat mindfully-think about what folks had to do to grow and produce this food

4. Take a deep relaxing breath now and again and soon it will become a habit.

5. Notice when you are entering a new space or when the hallway will end or turn.

If you practice these tips, you will be on your way to living mindfully.

Make a great week...........  Chat with you next week,,,,, Hippo
