Can't be "productive" or relax? Drop a ?if this resonates Perfectionism is a sneak bitch. When your worth is intangled with how much you do in a day, it's easy to fall in the thought trap that "I didn't do enough today so I don't deserve to rest." This leaves you even more defeated & depleted. An anxious ping pong stuck in an exhausting game. I've fallen into this thought trap way too often. I still have to remind myself (especially on weekends) that rest is productive. Rest is rebellion.? Rest does not have to be "earned" May this be a sign to truly relax.

#mindfulness #relax #stress Can't stop worrying or ruminating? Feeling stressed, anxious, and unable to relax? Perhaps you got a big test, presentation, or event coming up that is making you nervous. I created this 3 part series to quickly reduce stress and anxiety. It focuses on cultivating mindfulness, self-compassion, and inner resilience for overcoming whatever life may throw your way. This practice focuses on the non-judgmental awareness and acceptance of thoughts and feelings. Easier said than done! Instead of getting hooked and swept away by your thoughts and feelings, you can observe them with kindness and curiosity, like watching clouds drift through the sky. The power of letting go of thoughts that are unhelpful and no longer serve you frees you. Remember, you are more than your thoughts or feelings. Anxious thoughts are rarely true; worries are more like fake news and conspiracy theories! May this brief guided meditation with mindful imagery help you settle into stillness and free you from unhelpful thoughts and feelings.

#mindfulness #stress #relax Feeling stressed, anxious, and unable to relax? Perhaps you got a big test, presentation, or event coming up that is making you nervous. I created this 3 part series to quickly reduce stress. It focuses on cultivating mindfulness, self-compassion, and inner resilience for whatever life may throw your way. May this brief guided meditation with mindful imagery help you settle into stillness and melt the tension from your body and mind for deep relaxation. Enjoy becoming more aware of the present moment through the breath. You can't breathe in the past or in the future, you can only breathe in the now. Your loyal breath is always with you. This powerful anchor can be used to cultivate calm, clarity, and compassion. I believe we each carry inner resilience with mindfulness, we just have to be quiet to listen to our zen within.
