Daily Mindfulness Check-In July 20, 2021
Hi everyone, hope you're having a good day so far 
Today I like to invite you for an awareness exercise.
So, find quiet place and sit down. Take some deep breaths in through the nose, out through the nose. Tune into your body. Now write down on a piece of paper:
What is happening in your life right now that you wish you could change? What is the biggest source of frustration?As you write, notice the sensations in your body. Tune into the parts that are numb, in pain, or frozen. What are they trying to tell you? What needs healing, attention, or change?

I hope you are having a great day as well. What is happening in your life right now that you wish you could change?
I wish I had a more solid routine. Maybe like working or something. What is the biggest source of frustration?
Feeling like I'm not enough, or small little things irrating me that blows up.As you write, notice the sensations in your body. Tune into the parts that are numb, in pain, or frozen. What are they trying to tell you? What needs healing, attention, or change?
I'm not quite sure if this means physically or mentally. Phsyically, my lower back and neck area. Mentally, just a lot of topics overall.
HI @Stardew3
Great to know that you understand the importance of having a routine or a structure in life.
Regarding the feelings of worthlessness, it happens at times and can be demoralizing. How do you address this?
Cheers.
@alphav7
I acknowledge the fact it's happening, let that feeling recognize for about 30 seconds, and then try my best to let it go so it doesn't control me. A year of therapy and CBD (legal/medical) has really helped with that process. I don't have those resources all the time though, so it's just constantly reminding myself that I am human, and things are okay as not everything is a 100% baseline happy.
Thanks for sharing that, @Stardew3 :)
What is happening in your life right now that you wish you could change?
I wish I could change my easily distracted mind. I tend to waver and lose focus at times. Started identifying ways to combat this.
What is the biggest source of frustration?
Lack of being organised, chaos and sometimes unforeseen events that can shake me cause a lot of frustration.
As you write, notice the sensations in your body. Tune into the parts that are numb, in pain, or frozen. What are they trying to tell you? What needs healing, attention, or change?
I don't feel anything much, physically. But I guess I need healing and change.
thank you for this awareness exercise! something that's happening in my life right now that i wish i could change is my nervousness to make friends and the lack of trust i can have in others because of what i've been through. i want to be able to trust in people again and believe in their words and not think they're lying to me or using me and i've been working a lot towards that as well as learning to be more comfortable in my own skin. the biggest sources of frustration are my mom who i've been trying to convince to get me therapy for months now and working through my trauma can be difficult but i'm doing the best i can with letting my feelings flow
