Happy Monday! It's already December. This year has flown by. So let's take a deep breath and slow down.
If you can sit still for 5 minutes just focusing on your breathing. Turn off all electronics. What do you hear? What senses come to you? How do you feel without your phone,you email, or the tv on? Can you imagine this life a century or two ago?
This is an old post, but a great topic! Today people often are on their phones, computers or TVs, and it's beneficial to take a break every so often, not just at bedtime. Mindfulness is practiced in a less distracted state and can help calm the body and mind. I can only imagine what it was like living without cell phones, TV or computers - what a simple life people led back then, and much more mindful I bet!
