In this colorful graphic from Positively Present, we are reminded that life is full of many different kinds of moments. It's beneficial that we try our best to appreciate them all - that includes celebrating exciting moments🙌, accepting doubtful moments😟, sitting with questionable moments❓, connecting with the ongoing moments💫, and respecting ending moments.
This all connects with being mindful - learning to focus on how you feel and what is happening around you. It is important to be fully present in what you do, where you are, and with whoever is around you. Start by giving full attention to the moment at hand. When you are truly invested, you are better able to fully engage in life's experiences.
Some helpful tips to begin mindful practices:
*put your phone away when you spend time with others
*really listen to what others say in conversation and respond thoughtfully
*remind yourself that the task you're currently doing is the only task you need to focus on
*turn the TV off when you eat dinner or any other meal
Being mindful can provide health benefits, like improving sleep and reducing stress levels. Learning how to be mindful is a smart investment in yourself - both physically and mentally. You are worth it!
