Mindfulness is Heartfulness...
Mindfulness is not only "simply" paying attention; it is paying attention to yourself, others and your environnement with specific qualities: kindness, warmth, friendliness, openess, curiosity, non-judgement etc... Today's mindfulness practice is about dance, dance, dance!!
One of my favorite..... How do I do that? I choose my favorite music songs. It can be a rythmic one or not... I personnally love to do it on the opera Carmen by the French composer Georges Bizet, especially Habanera ("L'Amour est un oiseau rebelle")... and then I just dance! dance as if nobody is watching (well, this is the case because I do it at home when the kids are at school!), just let the flow of the movement following the music... it is a free dancing... no judgement, just paying attention to how you feel, think in that moment... And I love to have my daily little "ecstatic dance"... at least! It makes me feel so reenergized after that. So who's in?? :) Just try it and share your thoughts below.... #MindfulnessPractice #WiseMind #MindfulnessInspiration And by switching on your senses, you bring yourself back to the present moment and step out of the autopilot. It will also help you to step back from your mind chatter...
so stop whatever you are doing and simply pay attention to what you can see around you.... hear (inside and outside you).... smell .... taste (even if you are not eating, it can be whatever taste you can notice in your mouth... I am not giving you an excuse to eat a piece of chocolate ;) ).... touch.... right now ******** If you find it difficult to: - stay focused on a task at work or more generally in your life - deal with your mind chatter - savour the present moment - and many other things (like being in touch with your body, or your emotions, dealing with your stress, getting a clear, creative and calm mind etc...), I can help you with my online coaching program. |
