Which of these strategies would you use first? ⬆️⠀..⠀
Times are really stressful right now, but that doesn't mean a stressful moment has to turn into a stressful day. ☺️ You can reset your mind & your day in just 5 minutes. Here's how:⠀..⠀
🖐🏻 Take five. Try a 5-minute meditation break or even 5 long breaths.⠀
🍵 Soothe. Something else that works for me is to indulge myself with some quiet time and a hot cup of fragrant tea – preferable from a pretty cup. This gives me a few minutes to soothe myself before I have to move on. It feels nurturing and gives me time to refocus on my intentions.⠀
🍐 Nourish yourself. Eat something that you can feel really good about. Mindfully eat a juicy piece of fruit or a crunchy vegetable.⠀
🏃🏽♀️ Get active. If I’m at home when I need my reset, I can help myself by lifting weights for just a few minutes. Surprisingly, it helps a lot. Other people do jumping jacks or push ups or practice yoga poses. Even a 5-minute walk helps.⠀
🗣 Recite a mantra. Many of my clients find a reset in reciting a mantra. Think about what works for you. Here are two examples: 1) I am a work in progress. I strive to be terrific, not perfect. 2) Every mistake is proof that I’m trying, and I can learn from each effort.⠀..⠀
How do you reset your mind?
