The Lotus Flower is beautiful but resides in
the mud so it it symbolic of purity, strength,
resilience and rebirth..
Mindfulness 1. Being aware of what the universe is communicating to you moment by moment.
Do you stop and notice during your day?
When you are between places, when you are waiting for
someone or something.
2. Mindfulness helps you to handle your emotions better.
You will be kinder to yourself, which is self-compassion.
3. Mindfulness has links to authenticity, being true to yourself.
Authentic people are more motivated, which creates a growth mindset.
Your mind might surprise you if given a minute. Relax and see what small and big things make you smile.
That was a small trip of 'counting our blessings!'
Meditatation
Meditation is a matter of calming the brain. Transforming the brain from chaos to tranquility. There is more than one way to get this done. What works for one will not work for another. Do you need the quiet of your garden or an awesome view to put you into calm? What about your breathe? Concentrating on the inhale for a count of four or more and then holding for a bit and exhaling slowly. Pay attention to how your diaphragm fills, starting at the bottom, the belly then the upper belly and lower chest cavity. Hold for a few seconds and slowly exhale. Can you feel the huge difference rushing from one thing to another and worrying about the ten other things on your list?
Stay in the moment. Be aware.
Exercise is therapeutic. Walking creates a rhythm. Running does the same thing but it's a much different rhythm! Tennis is a fantastic game for the energy folks! But again, exercise clears the mind.
We are focused on the low to high range repetition, the soothing repetition that makes chaos fade into the background. Our heart gets a good workout. Start small - work hard - come back slowly to your regular rhythm.
Journaling is a fantastic way to explore your world and your inner soul. Journaling is Cathartic. You will be surprised with what comes out of the pen in your hand! Words, just words, but powerful, and amazing! Try to make journaling a habit, something you fit in everyday with morning coffee or evening prayers.
The Lotus flower signifies strength, resilience, growth, beauty and enlightenment!
Try thinking more slowly, carefully. Try the list making method
of 'getting to know you'.
I'm reading Ozan Varol's 'Awaken Your Genius' 9/20/2023
FANTASTIC!
He has spectacular information regarding journaling or 'free-writing'.
What happens when you free-write/journal....
"You are setting up your antenna... epiphanies buried in your subconscious will start popping up in random moments - like magic!"
Call us if you would like some help getting started with
journaling and/or list making. :)
