Do you remember when days seemed longer, holidays stretched on forever, you slept well at night and awoke refreshed? Each day was an adventure that started with anticipation and you went to bed content. When did all that change? At some point in life most people’s bodies and minds tend towards a downward spiral through stress. Mindfulness is about noticing what we are doing as we are doing it, what we are thinking as we are thinking it, and how we are feeling as we are feeling it. Using these practical exercises, you can deepen your capacity of awareness and significantly reduce stress.
