Good morning friends,
- 00:02 - 00:07
Happy Wednesday and welcome to today's mindful mornings
- 00:07 - 00:11
where everyday we are practicing the art of mindfulness
- 00:11 - 00:13
and as you remember,
- 00:13 - 00:15
mindfulness helps us be
- 00:15 - 00:16
in the present moment.
- 00:17 - 00:21
It helps us learn to control our bodies, to control our thoughts,
- 00:22 - 00:23
the words we choose
- 00:24 - 00:26
the way we move our body
- 00:26 - 00:29
and the way we focus on everything around us,
- 00:30 - 00:31
the more we practice
- 00:31 - 00:34
the better at it, we will get friends.
- 00:34 - 00:37
So for today's mindfulness activity
- 00:37 - 00:40
like always sit comfortably in your chair,
- 00:41 - 00:42
your hands can be
- 00:43 - 00:48
to your side on your thighs or like me in your pocket because it's cold.
- 00:49 - 00:52
And you're going to start by taking a deep breath in,
- 00:55 - 00:56
hold it
- 00:58 - 00:59
and a deep breath
- 00:59 - 01:00
out
- 01:04 - 01:08
my body is telling me that I need one more deep breath in
- 01:08 - 01:10
so I'm gonna do it one more time.
- 01:10 - 01:12
Deep breath in
- 01:16 - 01:18
deep breath out.
- 01:21 - 01:23
Mindfulness is also about listening
- 01:24 - 01:25
to what your body needs. Friends.
- 01:26 - 01:28
So for the next mindfulness activity,
- 01:28 - 01:30
you're going to see a candle
- 01:31 - 01:33
and it's going to be playing some music
- 01:33 - 01:35
and as you watch the candle,
- 01:36 - 01:37
think about
- 01:37 - 01:39
the way it moves,
- 01:40 - 01:42
think about the color,
- 01:43 - 01:46
imagine that you can smell
- 01:46 - 01:47
the candle burning,
- 01:48 - 01:50
you can feel the heat
- 01:50 - 01:52
of the candle on your arms,
- 01:53 - 01:54
really focus on the feeling
- 01:55 - 01:56
of the candle. Friends,
- 02:29 - 02:30
wow.
- 02:30 - 02:31
Mhm.
- 02:48 - 02:48
Ah
- 02:59 - 03:00
yeah,
- 03:06 - 03:10
now that was a quick switch back from our candle, gazing
- 03:11 - 03:13
back to our mindful mornings.
- 03:13 - 03:15
I hope that you were able to focus on the color,
- 03:16 - 03:17
the sound,
- 03:17 - 03:19
the shape of the flame
- 03:19 - 03:22
and even imagine yourself what it would smell like.
- 03:23 - 03:25
All of that my friends is mindfulness.
- 03:26 - 03:31
So let's move on to our affirmations for today. So go ahead and repeat after me.
