Mindful Moments with Becca Mills

Happy Holidays and Happy New Year ✨

Here are some great leisurely feel-good ideas from a self-care journal I was gifted 💞

12/19/2025

Ahhhh the end of the year will soon be here! This time of year lends itself to reflection on the past and hopes for the future...

This year, I am looking back with overflowing gratitude for the moments of good health and contendedness I've been fortunate to experience in my life. I feel so lucky and blessed to keep spinning around on this earth while doing things I love and feeling healthy and well enough to accomplish my goals and support others.

Since January, I've traveled to new-to-me places in Canada, stamped two new countries on my passport (one with my hubby and one solo!), gained a 200hr Registered Yoga Teacher certification, accepted a promotion as Team Lead (in my Family Engagement role at Amal Youth & Family Resources), and returned to post-secondary this fall and managed an A average in my studies (Advanced Studies of Inclusive Practice in Early Childhood Education). These precious moments are not lost on me.🎀

While reflecting on these accomplishments -- I have to recognize that my daily practice of mindfulness, mindful movement, and meditation are largely to thank for my successes and overall well-being (as well as surigcal intervention, IYKYK). I thank my lucky stars that I have found ways to cope with the difficult task of being human, and I feel so grateful to share the present moment practices with others. May we all be happy, healthy and whole 💖

The light in me sees the light in you ✨

Namaste 🧘‍♀️

Happy World Mindfulness Day! 🧘🏼

There are so many ways to practice mindfulness and I wholeheartedly encourage you to find what best works for you. Through deepening my own practice, I’ve become so passionate about finding ways to help connect others with their body & mind.

I’ve continued my studies to ensure a trauma-sensitive and neurodivergent-friendly practice and since earning my 200hr YTT this summer, I am pleased to incorporate yoga into our Mindful Moments. There are countless studies on the benefits of mindfulness and yoga. I’ll go first in sharing how mindfulness and mindful movement help me:

✨ Think straight
✨ Label emotions
✨ Center myself
✨ Prioritize tasks
✨ Process chaos
✨ Sleep well
✨ Practice gratitude
✨ Eat healthier
✨ Decrease anxiety
✨ Communicate patiently
✨ Release tension
✨ Reduce pain
✨ … and so many other things

Thank you to all those who have been asking about and availing of my sessions! Word-of-mouth has created many opprotunities to meet people wanting to learn stress reduction skills and start their mindfulnessss journey.

It’s been such a joy to meet people in their homes and I’m more than happy to sit at the kitchen table with you for a session!🏡

I figured it’s time to put out a formal advertisement for these private sessions 👀 you never know who is looking for this type of service 📞 💻 Reach out for more information!

Thank you to the talented and dedicated community theatre group, The Carol Players for the unique opportunity for me to present on stage while they took their seats in the auditorium. Truly a “switcheroo” moment!

I absolutely love meeting new people and having productive conversations around mindfulness and becoming present in our day to day lives (on and off the stage).

Break a leg on your opening night, folks! I’ll be there when the curtain goes up!

A huge thank you to Becca Mills for joining us during rehearsal this evening to teach us about mindfulness! We appreciate your time and knowledge and look forward to putting the tools you taught us into practice (on and off stage) 😌

👋 I’ll admit, I’ve somewhat forgotten about the social media side of “Mindful Moments.” I’ve been busy meeting new clients, stepping into new locations, and booking upcoming events and more. (Yay!)

I’ve also been spending time taking care of myself and keeping true to what I value most. Trying to sleep well, eat well and be well. Time with friends, family, and having a good time in general. Right now, I’m currently sitting in the Montreal airport heading towards some exciting birthday weekend plans. 🎂

All of that to say - I have a little story I wanted to share! This past week I’ve had no less than 3 migraines. They tend to pop up when I’ve had too much caffiene, lost sleep or experiencing elevated stress in general. My double-sided to-do list this past week and my broken sleep the night before was probably the cause of yesterday’s migraine. My head was pounding, my eyes were sensitive, and my belly nauseous and I didn’t have my medication on me during my shift… I took a 15 min break in the middle of my day and meditated in a quiet area. Would you believe I felt 99% better when my alarm went off. Pain = p**f! 💨 And the migraine stayed cured for the rest of the day. 🙏

Food for thought for anyone who hasn’t tried meditation or mindfulness yet but suffers with chronic pain, stress or illness. Could be worth a try! ♥️

Yoga Teacher Training opportunity! 🧘‍♀️🧘🧘‍♂️

I have been talking about this very specific off-grid YTT training for years. First, in 2023 I was set to do this in BC but due to my unravelling health, and being unable to lift my book bag and yoga mat without excruciating pain, I postponed. Then, in 2024 I carefully decided that 4 months post-op from surgery was not the right time to push myself. Now, in July 2025 I will be heading to Christina Lake, BC to complete the training of my dreams. ✨

Anyone interested in joining can expect:
🧘14 nights in tent
🧘15 days of yoga, meditation and good food
🧘bathing in a creek, showered by rain
🧘unplugged from technology
🧘 200 hour YTT certificate
🧘 non-stop nature, flora and fauna

***I don’t actually want anyone to contribute - I have all the funds lined up. ***

I look forward to offering yoga in the future through Mindful Moments with Becca Mills & I’m just sharing this link to spread the news of this amazing opportunity for other like-minded individuals!

Namaste ✨

“Children who practice mindfulness regularly show improved concentration and academic performance. Studies have found that even brief mindfulness exercises can help young students maintain focus during lessons and retain information more effectively. Beyond the classroom, these children often demonstrate better emotional regulation, showing fewer instances of impulsive behavior and decreased anxiety levels.”

In today’s fast-paced digital world, teaching children mindfulness has become not just beneficial, but essential. Research shows that mindful youth experience reduced anxiety, better academic performance, and stronger emotional regulation skills. As parents and educators, we can strengthen your ch...
