A Mindful Minute


Go outside Stand tall Back to the sun Or face it if you prefer

Arms to side Fingers apart
Breathe in Breathe out

Close your eyes

Breathe in Breathe out

What are three things you can hear?

Breathe In Breathe out

What can you feel between your fingers? What can you feel on your face?

Breathe in Breathe out

What can you smell?

Breathe in Breathe out

Hear again Feel again Smell again

Breathe in Breathe out

It is great to be alive
Feel your heart swell

Smile, and open your eyes
You just meditated 😁

Have a great day❤️ mindfulness stressmanagement selfcare

The Eternal Internal Battles and How I Overcome Them

Image
Lashing out in anger Is my act of self-defence It is the shield behind which sits Self-doubt Rejection Failure Not Good Enough Judgement Selfishness This chaos, this inner mess Because Yet it’s like I haven’t even spent And so, deeper I go But suddenly, within that mess And so with each lie my Judgement? Is sent from time to time To test my mettle And yes, it sure does Old thoughts Old habits Old stories Old feelings Flow so quickly and easily I am still human after all Perfectly imperfect Nearly 3 years working on Self-Improvement Mindset Personal Growth And I wonder Have I truly learned anything? Because the old mess is here again! And I’m getting tired of cleaning her up! My true weapon appears One I have been crafting Throughout this time Honing it Perfecting it Just not always remembering To actually yield it Fear-mind tries to focus on My heart finds the equal And opposite reaction A...

A Question: What Is Your Song?

Image
“What's your favorite song to this day, from your childhood, that takes you to a magickal place!!???” A friend posed this question recently. What a great question! Throughout the most challenging moments of my life, music has been a constant companion. It brings me up when I’m down, and brings me down when I’m too far up! It’s always been part of my life, yet to answer that question, I truly had to wrack my brain! So I sat with it for a day. Took my mind for a trip down memory lane. My earliest memory of songs? Little ditty’s like, Twinkle Little Star, Humpty Dumpty, Puff the Magick Dragon. Do those take me to a majickal place when I think of them? No. I don’t feel it. They are but Mere Moments, snippets of memories, fluttering about and coming quickly to rest upon the paths of time. I later evolved To “Mum’s Songs”. Record player on repeat. Love songs. Yellow Ribbons, Old Oak Trees, Blue Eyes, and Beautiful Girls Gone Missing. Not my songs. Just a familiarity. A place in time and ...

Today I Am Celebrating Me!

I am so pleased that after 28 Days of  #stayingathome  I have managed to maintain my weight. Yes I’ve certainly had my down days. Yes I’ve eaten Tacos, and Popcorn. Yes I’ve enjoyed some Muffins, and Hot Chips And Yes I’ve certainly enjoyed a tipple or six. But what I have also done MOST of the time, is made more healthy choices than unhealthy choices, and have committed to and been consistent with a minimum amount of activity per week. When you set realistic goals, you are more likely to achieve them, which then gives you a sense of satisfaction, and this in turn can fuel the motivation to take it to your next level. If you are struggling now, then perhaps you need to review the goals you have set for yourself. Are they realistic? #healthybalancedlifestyle
