Mindful Monday: It’s YOUR day off. Is your mind present + calm or distracted?

Happy Monday!

How was your weekend?

Were you mindful or was your mind FULL?

Or maybe a bit of both? Hey, it's called a mindfulness practice for a reason. :)

I don’t know about you but, the older I get the more I realize how precious time is - and time seems to just fly by.

Picture this…

It’s the weekend. It’s YOUR time off.

BUT your mind won’t shut off and relax. Your mind is busy focusing on work or random thoughts about the past or future.

This is frustrating, right?!

THEN you judge yourself for not being present, and it makes the situation a whole lot worse.

Can you relate?

What is it costing you when you are distracted and stressed?
(Your peace of mind, focus, health, relationships)

This is the deal.

An untrained mind is not present.

It will be focused on the past or future – robbing us of those precious moments with friends, family or ourselves.

The good news is…

The mind is trainable. A mindfulness practice will train your mind to be more present, positive and focused.

And here's a fact for you...A Mindfulness Practice will train your mind to be present; increase your serotonin (aka 'happy hormone') and allow you to chill out.

So what are you waiting for?

Want to meditate with me this week?

To your peace + well-being,
