Okay, I want you all to sit in a comfortable chair, with a warm cup of your favorite coffee or tea done your way - straight, with milk, or with cream and sugar.
Now, focus on your day ... both stressful and relaxing, close your eyes, and then take a deep breath. Breathe in the deep and rich flavors of your coffee or tea as your thoughts will begin to drift off.
Now, open your eyes, focus on your coffee or tea and how stress relieving it will be to take that first sip. 🙂

Abby, this sounds novel and helpful. For me, I don't have the coherence to be mindful at the dark-thirty in the morning time while I am breathing in coffee. Yet, when I am free of this oppressive and abusive job, I will give that a try. 
@AbbyHarris1976
Kinda started this "attempt" that you suggested for the past few days (1 day on, 1 day off) where i had routine workout runs in the morning.
Since somehow i started to learn about my body that digestion/appetite seems to be off after run.
But rather sitting in front my computer, with a coffee seems to be much more better than
- breakfast with coffee
- that often results in bloating, cramping, nausea-ing
But then... i have to comtemplate about number of coffee cups i have daily... body does not agree at similar situations sometimes...
- black coffee
- 2in1 coffee with creamer (those instant kinds)
- not really a fan of sugar
But what i realised was... with this "coffee" and "me" and "computer" and "alone time".
Computer work blasted like very quickly.
Along with the coffee...
Hiaz... I wondered at times if i even savoured it or not...
Or was it more like abuse...
PS : Doctors diagnosed me, for anxiety, depression, schizoid personality disorder, eating disorder (anorexia, arfid)
Well... i was so looking forward to it. (it is 3am..., woke up, forced yoga, quick shower, coffee..)
But ended up not really savouring it. (i've lost touch of savouring coffee since eating "disorder" habits began, now its just f'ing calories...)
anyways gulped it.
and i got pissed that my computer "hanged" again.
hiaz... parents recommeded me its time to let go and change my pc, time for change of life. (hiaz... cant let go, cant let go of $... too)
ahem ahem
(5.34am gmt 8+)
morning, after a run (ok ok only) did not sleep well.
Yea is the same coffee (again)...
Although i do prefer to drink healthier coffee...
But making for self.. is kinda expensive... and wasteful...
Morning.
Decided with Black for today.
Not much appetite for breakfast today... just ate...
Did not really sleep well though...
(Probably my last post for this thread... seemed like chatting with myself.)
@mikenai22
That's the way I like to drink my coffee also.
I'll get to this thread a little more this week; I haven't been on here for too long a time this weekend because I've been out at meetup events this weekend and my iPhone battery keeps getting drained ... so I can't be logged onto the App when I'm in transit on the CTA.
Don't worry @AbbyHarris1976 I'm just probably feeling abit awkward "replying" to myself... So i thought probably be better off posting elsewhere... of not "spending" the effort...
Today's sinful drink.
Yea.. empty calories. saturated fats...
You did not see wrongly...
It is green..
First time ever in my life trying...
Not sure if i regretted it.
but it is an experience trying it out
Green Smoothie Coffee
- spinach
- oats
- banana
- coffee grandules
- almond butter
- water (adjust thickness to your liking)
@mikenai22
That looks very interesting.
@AbbyHarris1976
Though it kinda looked grossing...
Tasted fine actually.
Ultra filling...
Perhaps i need to adjust the quantity.
Feeling kinda hard to concentrate. Stomach very full. (Yea eating disorder kicking in...)
Sharing a post, for coffee lovers.
Since I am losing my "grateful-ness" and "enjoyment" to coffee.
Worse off, abusing it. Instead of liking it.
How to Be Grateful for Your Morning Cup of Coffee

Another morning. MC, at home. Doctor recommended to work with my psychiatrist on sleeping issues... and to return to usual medication... =.=
This coffee... slightly special.
(I hate special... means need to pre-prepare)
Coffee + Oat + Cinnamon
Oats blended 1 day before...
AAR : I hate the cinnamon taste.
