  Good morning Friends and happy Tuesday.

• 00:04 - 00:09

  Welcome to today's Mindful mornings where again we are just practicing the art

• 00:09 - 00:14

  of mindfulness every day to get our mind and our body ready.

• 00:14 - 00:19

  It takes some people days, weeks even years

• 00:19 - 00:21

  to practice mindfulness

• 00:21 - 00:24

  and to get really really good at mindfulness

• 00:25 - 00:28

  because it's learning to control your body.

• 00:29 - 00:34

  It's learning to focus around on your surroundings in the present moment.

• 00:35 - 00:39

  And that takes a lot of practice Friends. And every day we get to practice together.

• 00:40 - 00:44

  So for today's mindfulness activity to practice being fully here

• 00:44 - 00:49

  and practice on focusing on where we are right now.

• 00:49 - 00:52

  Go ahead and sit comfortably in your chair.

• 00:53 - 00:55

  And we're gonna start with our deep breath in

• 00:56 - 00:57

  mm hmm.

• 00:58 - 01:00

  And our deep breath out

• 01:03 - 01:06

  And I want you to focus your ears,

• 01:06 - 01:08

  focus your attention

• 01:08 - 01:10

  on the following sounds.

• 01:10 - 01:15

  If you feel comfortable you can close your eyes Because when we close our eyes

• 01:15 - 01:20

  We stop one sense and our other senses like our sense of smell

• 01:20 - 01:23

  and our sense of hearing get heightened.

• 01:24 - 01:25

  So if you feel comfortable

• 01:25 - 01:27

  go ahead and close your eyes.

• 01:28 - 01:39

  Remember to breathe.

• 01:40 - 01:41

  Thank you.

  Okay.

• 01:51 - 01:53

  Mm hmm.

• 02:15 - 02:16

  Yeah,

• 02:24 - 02:27

  I almost wanted to keep listening to those birds

• 02:27 - 02:30

  sounds because I felt like they were relaxing.

• 02:30 - 02:34

  I was imagining myself laying down in a field of grass

• 02:34 - 02:37

  and just having all those birds and trees around me.

• 02:38 - 02:42

  And practicing that mindfulness is getting in touch with what you hear,

• 02:42 - 02:47

  what you may see what you may smell about where you are right now.

• 02:47 - 02:48
