Happy Monday to everyone in the Mindfulness Community, I wish you all a great week laugh heart

Make sure to drink enough water wink

Even slight dehydration can lead to feelings of depression surprise Make sure that you are staying hydrated throughout the day.

Today’s exercise:

Fill a glass with water. Hold the glass and appreciate how calm and peaceful the water is.

Take a mouthful of water and let it flow down your throat slowly.

Take a deep breath and exhale, take another mouthful of water.

Notice the slow, clear, peaceful water falling down your throat.

Focus on the water.

Recognize the water and appreciate this peaceful ‘now’ moment.

When your mind jumps around, simply refocus on this simple activity and notice the water – nothing more.

enlightenedPlease come back and share your experience here with everyone heart

Loved the experience blush Thank you so much! I felt like my focus was in the present moment and it is very calming. To be just aware of the present moment. The way water flows smoothly.. the sensations.. Loved itsmiley
