Hello Mindfulness Community! Happy Tuesday to you all. Today I wanted to start off with a quick mindfulness excercise This excercise will not take long but lets see how they make us feel after doing it.

Image result for breathing gif"

Mindful breathing for one minute.
Lower your eyes and notice where you feel your breath. That might be the air going in and out of your nose or the rise and fall of your chest. If you cant feel anything, place your hand on your stomach and notice how your hand gently rises and falls with your breath. If you like, you can just lengthen the in breath and the out breath or just breathe naturally.

Focus on your breath. When your mind wanders, as it will do, just bring your attention back to your breath. You might like to say ‘thinking when you notice your thoughts and just gently shepherd your attention back to your breath.

This can be done for longer than one minute. However, even for one minute it will allow you to pause and be in the moment. Or you might just like to breathe out stress on the out breath and breathe in peace on the in breath.

How do you feel now after taking the moment to focus on your breath? How is your day going so far?

@Karrot Slowly inhale and feel the pure air filling your lounges, then exhale and feel all the stress leaving your body...

@Karrot wow now I am ready to go-go-gosmileyI noticed when I take the time and see WHERE my breathing is coming from I actually get full benefits from doing mindful breathing. Instead of it coming from my tummy- where that breathing is not good. I focus on my chest and it feels great. Thank you for making my morning and reminding me to focus on me today
