Half Smile and Willing Hands

When we are angry or stressed and we take a posture of openness which is willing hands, this is literally opening ones hands up and showing the wrists or put on a soft smile, the mind starts to mimic what the body is saying is happening. Although the inside may feel stressed but the outside suggests relaxation or patience or willingness, then the inside will start to match.

@amiablePeace77 that reminds me of the phrase "Fake it till you make it"

For me if I start to smile even a little I feel better.

Sometimes "Fake it until you make it" really works laugh, the inside of our body will match the outside.

Happy Tuesday Mindfulness Community, how was your start in the new week?

My week has been going well!

Mindfulness exercises are good and relaxing, but I only know a few like breathing slowly and closing your eyes, think happy thoughts and smiling (for me, smiling makes me feel better sometimes). There are probably a few more that I do for mindfulness exercises but I can't think of them at the top of my head and/or I do these exercises without thinking.

Hi there, nice to hear that your week was good. laugh

I find it's easier to have a list for mindfulness exercises, particularly in situations when feeling stressed and the brain does not want to think surprise. Here are some links which might help
