Daily Mindfulness Check-In August 31, 2021
One of the things I am most grateful for to those who helped me but also to myself for taking the opportunity offered is to have learned and keep on learning about mindfulness. It helped me to stop the downward spiral when sadness or depression "knocks at the door". I realized that I became much more resilient to triggers and are able to bounce back much faster.

My biggest benefit is how it informs my caregiving for others. I'm deeply in tune with their vibes and am trying to learn to turn that toward myself too.
@lishalu0606
Hi Lishalu nice to see you here. That is a good thing being in tune with others. I also do hope that you tune into yourself and you find the benefits rewarding❤️
@amiablePeaI
find Mindfulness so hard. I can never get in the Observes seat. Feels like I am just spinning my wheels and getting nowhere fast. I keep trying
@scarletPear1945
Nice to see you Pear. I understand you on feeling Mindfulness is hard for you to do. It can be for many. We do not want you to spin your wheels getting no where-fast. Mindfulness really can start anywhere you are comfortable with.
You can try observing the taste of your breakfast. The sounds, tastes, cold or hot. Simple things to start. I am glad to hear that you will keep trying. Also I am here also AmiablePeace and even the community here to help and support you with this. hugs❤️
@scarletPear1945
Often the progress we make grows at its own time inside of us and it can feel like endless but please do not let that stop you from continuing to practise. Learning to be patient can be hard but the more you stick to it, the easier it will become. This is a meditation about patience which I find quite nice https://youtu.be/xhhi-WSc6Uo
@amiablePeace77
Hi Ami
What is the biggest benefit you received from practising mindfulness?
The biggest benefit in practicing Mindfulness that I received is knowing I do not have to be scared or anxious of how I feel or think. Mindfulness gave me freedom
What changes have you noticed since you started practising mindfulness?
I do not spit out a fast response no more. I listen better. I do not go from 1-10 fast.
@RumpleSteeleSkin
Not going from 1 to 10 and listen better are huge benefits! Way to go!
Think before you act and don't loose your patience.
Sometimes certain phrases people use to turn you away from a project can make you cuss up a storm.
@MoonLightShadow423
Keeping patient can avoid a lot of stress!
@amiablePeace77
What is the biggest benefit you received from practising mindfulness?
It really helps to keep me grounded. Pretty much always been a here and now person. Kind of a Carpe Diem in a stop to smell the roses way.... smiles.
What changes have you noticed since you started practising mindfulness?
Much more to be thankful for at the end of the day.
@anamcaranv
Live for today (Carpe Diem) and be grateful sounds wonderful!
I try to practice mindfulness daily but it's still a struggle - especially when different emotions come all at once and get overwhelming
When I'm doing good with it - it helps me feel more grounded and more in control of things going on inside me
@mytwistedsoul
Nice to hear that mindfulness anchors you and helps to manage your emotions!
@amiablePeace77
What is the biggest benefit you received from practising mindfulness?
I can implement this is my every day life
What changes have you noticed since you started practising mindfulness?
I have slowed down and started thinking about my words what I am putting out there and what I am saying to others
@heavenlyHug9328
Nice! Slowing down and think before you speak helps to not unintentionally hurt someone verbally.
What is the biggest benefit you received from practising mindfulness?
I really feel like I've become calmer and happier.
I am more patient. I definitely try to be nicer to everyone I cross paths with.
@thoughtfulmomma
That sounds wonderful thoughtfulmomma!
since beginning my mindfulness journey a couple of weeks ago, i have found that i am able to manage my stress a lot better, and i have been able to identify my stress triggers. It has helped me manage my anger and all of my emotions. I have also become more emotionally independent; not needing as much validation from others, or as much of their time or energy to rant about my problems or insignificant annoyances. I appreciate this app so so much 😌
@NikkiNetik
Glad to hear that mindfulness helped you in so many ways!
Mindfulness is an amazing practice, but it requires dedication. If I am consistent with my practice I feel more centered and less anxious.
@NiaMostMysterious
Good to hear NiaMostMysterious! I agree, regular practise helps.
