Daily Mindfulness Check-In November 16, 2020
Hello everyone in the Mindfulness Community. How are you doing today, how was your weekend? 
When we suffer it is important to acknowledge our feelings.
Giving yourself permission to feel what you feel without becoming too overwhelmed and getting caught up in your feelings helps to let them go naturally.
Here are some statements which can be useful:
"This is suffering” (or something similar);
“Suffering is part of being human” (acknowledge that all humans suffer and struggle);
A phrase that you feel offers compassion, such as “May I love and accept myself just as I am.”

Good morning to all
Thanks @amirablePeace
Tasty food and thoughts for today, I am glad that you remined us that Life happens. My daughter that lives with me tested positive for the virus and we were together in my car and I am trying not to get overwhelmed and stressed out. So many precautions and such tremendous changes that we must do.
@scarletPear1945
Pear hello wonderful to see you. Yes tastie foods is a plus! I am really sorry to hear of your daughter getting the virus. HugsI know as a parent it can be very hard to control your emotions on certain things concerning the kiddos. You are strong and doing well. I do hope that you can all be as safe as possible and the 14 days goes by fast. Take care of each other and be mindful of your feelings and thoughts, as we can wrap ourselves up in them and forget of what is fact in front of us. Hugs to you all
@RumpleSteeleSkin

@amiablePeace77
Thank you for these messages.
My day is going okay, except for the fact that my school had a power outage that messed everything up, so there was no school today, and that pushed back everything, especially because today is the end of Goal 1 and there's a bunch of quizzes and tests this week.
@Person12269
Nice to have you here with us Person. Oh dear I am so sorry that your school had a power loss. HugsTo have the all the quizzes and tests happening this week and not able to be online or at school is very hard. I do hope they get this issue solved so you can continue on school things and prepare yourself for the quizzes and tests. Hugs
@RumpleSteeleSkin
Thanks! The power got restored, and the tests and quizzes are being pushed back.
@Person12269
That is so good to know. Now take a big breathe in and know you will do great!
@RumpleSteeleSkin
Thanks so much! I will, and I hope I do decent enough!
@amiablePeace77
You know when you plan something and doesn't turn out the way you wanted? That's how my weekend was but at least I got to start doing some of my assignments for university.
@sensitiveShade5337
Hey there Shade glad you are here! Yes when our plans are set we have excitement and can't wait for it to happen. Then when it gets changed or cancelled there is disappointment. I am sorry this happened ShadeGood job on being able to get some homework done for university. Hugs
@RumpleSteeleSkin
Well thanks, at least someone gets it.
@sensitiveShade5337
I think many do
@amiablePeace77
Wow Ami this is a great check-in today...thank youI do not really have a personal statement for myself, but I would love to adopt this one please “May I love and accept myself just as I am.”
@RumpleSteeleSkin
That is a good one to adopt!
@amiablePeace77
may I feel safe and know that I am
@scarletPear1945
"May I feel safe and know it" Yes you can be safe. Yes you can feel it and know it
@amiablePeace77
I just thought about what I just posted and realized that I speak these thoughts but somehow I don.t believe what is coming out of my mouth. Like a lost connection to the power source. Being able to feel it in my heart is absent.
@scarletPear1945
HI Pear I see that it could be you are being mindful/more aware of how you speak. But also please do not be taken back on sharing how your feeling no matter how it soundsKeep speaking how you feel as this is another way that empowers you! As you start feeling how 1 feeling is-like happiness it will find it's way into your heart. One feeling at a time. We are all here for you Pear as you continue sharing your feelings and thoughts
