Mindful Monday: Learning 2 Breathe--Healthy Habits

Happy Mindful Monday, all you fantastic people. We’re back to discussing L2B and thus far we’ve gone over these themes:

B: Body, learning to listen to our bodies

R: Reflect, reflecting on our thoughts

E: Emotions, we can surf the waves of our emotions

A: Attend, attend to what’s inside and outside of us

T: Tenderness, try some tenderness; take life as it is

Today we go over H: Healthy habits; practicing healthy habits of mind

So many times during our days we’re given external cues from family, friends, teachers, co-workers, media, advertisements, etc. Cues can be powerful things, poking us in just the right way to get us to do something.

We can do this for ourselves too, give ourselves mindfulness cues. Here’s a worksheet of suggestions.

And here’s a video about healthy habits of mind.

Putting these together, what are things we can do to help us create habits of healthy living, healthy thinking, being more mindful?

I would love to hear your thoughts.

 

*If you’d like a way to put more mindfulness into practice, this holiday season, consider getting one of these Holiday Thrive journals I’ve put together. They are self-care guides to help you not just survive the stresses of the holidays, but thrive through them.
