Not long got home from my daily treadmill run. Today's was an hour of 4 min gentle run with 1 min walk intervals, effectively 12 sets of 4 minutes breath meditation. Exercise has always been a form of therapy for me, often calms my mind.

Love the nickname. I try to do mindfulness in the morning and before bedtime to help me relax and sleep better. I am now taking physical therapy for ankle surgery 3 months ago i in my daily exercise and weight lifting at home I try my best to do 30-45 minutes a day, I have to be carfeful because I suffer from vertigo so some exercises irrate it.

How do you keep mindful in your daily activities?
I try to stay present with everything I do. It does not work out all the time, sometimes my mind leaves into the past or future, so I have to call it back, but this is a mindful exercise too and does not worry me.
