Hello beautiful people in the Mindfulness Community ❤️

To me nothing is worse in the evening than going into bed and regurgitate all the things I perceived as bad during the day. I find that having bad thoughts right before falling asleep makes me have more negative thoughts in the morning when waking up. So, let's share some things that help us to sleep well and wake up well too.

Fill in the blanks 😊

Something that helps me to calm before sleep is __________

Something that helps me to get into a positive mindset in the morning is _________


Before sleep I usually do a brief meditation or a breathing exercise to calm my mind. When I wake up in the morning positive affirmations, gratitude meditations and happy music helps me to feel more positive about the day.

Hey guys! Something that helps me to calm before sleep is progressive muscle relaxation and listening to a good audiobook.

Something that helps me to get into a positive mindset in the morning is looking at the daylight and sun shining.

@SparklingSnowflake15

Doing progressive muscle relaxation before bedtime is a really good idea. When the body feels relaxed the mind follows.

I like listening to chill music before going to sleep. Really helps my mind not race when I'm paying attention to the sounds.

I don't really have anything I do in the mornings to help me be more positive, actually. Perhaps I can try something.

Nice that music helps you with a racing mind! Do you think uplifting music could help you to feel more positive in the morning. I love the song "Happy" https://youtu.be/y6Sxv-sUYtM, do you have a song that makes you feel better instantly?

At night I take my medicine an hour or two before bed (it's an antidepressant but it calms my mind and makes me more tired). In the morning I like to drink a cup or two of coffee to wake up and start my day💙

Good that the meds help you! Have you considered to compliment the meds with a mindfulness meditation? If you need any link please pm me.

Hello Ami wowzers this check in is right up there for me. Thank you

Something that helps me to calm before sleep is praying . Letting it go to my Higher Power-God to help me deal with it. And to realize I can not change no one and I do not have to take on extra feelings that are not mine.

Something that helps me to get into a positive mindset in the morning is focus on the truths I know. Focus on the good I've done for the community and animals. Know my worth!!

Again Ami so thank you for this check in❤️

@LovetoGod

Great idea to cycle in the morning and get the blood circulation going! Are you cycling at home (stationary bike) or outside?
