This powerful phrase is one of our favorite ways of defining mindfulness! It invites us to fully engage and be present in the current moment. It reminds us to focus on what's happening right now, rather than getting lost in thoughts about the past or worries about the future. Just like our feet are firmly planted in the present, we can ground ourselves in the here and now. Embracing each step we take and immersing ourselves in the present moment – even if we’re not barefoot in the grass! – allows us to appreciate life's little moments and find clarity and purpose in all that we do. So, let's be where our feet are, and let the present moment become our anchor in this ever-changing world.

I'm always on the lookout for science-backed techniques to improve our well-being. Have you seen the "alpha bridge sleep hack" that is helping people doze off faster?! 💤 Here's the scoop: 1️⃣ Close your eyes, count to 30 2️⃣ Open slightly, count to 5 3️⃣ Repeat steps 1-2 4️⃣ Focus on deep nasal breathing Why it works: This technique helps transition your brain from active beta waves to relaxed alpha waves, priming you for sleep. Remember, pair it with a calming bedtime routine for best results. Have you tried this hack? Share your experiences below! Sweet dreams, everyone! 💤 Read more here: https://lnkd.in/eNvPrBZk @ericathriveguru

Today, I am incredibly grateful for many things, especially my two amazing boys, Beck and Owen. However, like many, I find it easy to lose sight of these blessings and get caught up in stress and a never-ending to-do list. To counter this, I consciously step back and ask myself, "What's NOT wrong?" This question helps shift my brain's focus from survival-oriented negativity to an open and curious search for what's right. I recently shared this approach during a mindfulness session with a PR firm, where we practiced gratitude by acknowledging simple blessings such as our feet, heartbeat, chair, running water, and internet connectivity. A participant later mentioned how focusing on what isn't wrong revealed that there was not much wrong in their life, after all. Practicing gratitude doesn't deny pain and stress but rather acknowledges what is working, providing our brains with a balanced perspective. This shift enhances mental strength and resilience, preparing us to face any challenges ahead. Consider asking yourself, "What's not wrong?" regularly, especially in challenging moments.

Welcome to a mini mindfulness practice designed to help you pause and reset throughout your day, especially during transitions between activities. This technique, called STOP, is an acronym for: 1. Stop what you're doing. 2. Take some deep breaths. 3. Observe what's happening (thoughts, emotions, bodily sensations). 4. Proceed in a way that supports you in the moment. Here's how to practice STOP: 1. Stop and find a place to rest, either seated or standing. 2. Take deep breaths, in through the nose and out through the mouth, at your own pace. 3. Observe what's happening within you - any thoughts, emotions, or bodily sensations. Simply notice them without trying to change or fix anything. 4. Proceed by considering what would support you right now. It could be a walk, gentle stretches, or continuing deep breathing. Remember, you have the ability to respond rather than react to what's happening. Use this practice to pause, reset, and proceed in a way that supports you. Thank you for pausing with me, and I look forward to our next mindfulness practice together. #Mindfulness #StressRelief #MentalWellness

Sometimes getting caught up in overthinking can be like a never ending loop, where thoughts swirl around in all directions. Whether you find yourself dwelling on things that are beyond your control replaying conversations in your mind or fretting about what the future holds, please know that you're not alone. Practicing mindfulness can make a difference; 👉 Recognize the Habit: Acknowledge overthinking as a behavior that many individuals grapple with. 👉 Create Mental Breathing Room: Visualize spaciousness to foster clarity and tranquility. 👉 Observe with Empathy: Approach your thoughts with compassion of getting entangled in them. 👉 Stay Grounded in the Present: Utilize mindfulness strategies to anchor yourself in the here and now. Don't allow overthinking to take control of your life. #MindfulnessMatters #OverthinkingAwareness #MentalWellness
