1. What emotions, feelings, and thoughts are you experiencing in this moment?
I feel excited and also a little nervous. I'm stressed and I hope my planning will work out. I'm happy that I'll be seeing my friends soon. I feel like dreaming away the day.
2. What, if any, external factors are you aware of in this present moment, like sights, sounds, smells, tastes, and touch?
My computer is buzzing, which I like because that means it'll get hot soon and my hands are cold. I can hear the wind blowing outside but it isn't as bad as yesterday so that's good. I like the new Rituals body lotion I used, it smells really good.
3. How's your body?
My upper back and shoulders are a little cramped. I might want to do some yoga stretches later on. I'm also a little thirsty now that I think of it. My chair is really comfortable.
Kinda funny that when you write all of this down, you actually notice more? Usually I answer questions like these through meditation but I guess my thoughts go too fast for me to consciously notice most. Very interesting.
I feel uncertain, as in what to do with the suddenly free day (my today's work got cancelled last minute). I'm a bit anxious that I won't use the time 'wisely' and my less constructive habits will win. I am also a bit hopeful though.
Right now I can see trees, houses and the sky. I hear birds and crows and cars. I smell metal and dust and earth. I taste lingering mint and the taste of my own mouth. I sense warmness on my face and coldness on my back and my feet. My eyes feel a bit dry and my throat burns slightly. My lower back and my hip started to ache slightly so I just changed position.
@EmunahHere
I am not okay. Under weather and caught by cold.
So many thoughts rushing in mind and body tired. Though it was Sunday, household work kept me engaged.
@ASilentObserver Sorry to hear you are ill, colds stink you just have to ride them out, you will feel better before you know it. Have some soup, get some rest. Get well soon! This pink elephant made me think of your pink elephant, it's cute, thought you would like it lol Have a great day/night.

@EmunahHere thanks for this mindfulness reminder
1. What emotions, feelings, and thoughts are you experiencing in this moment?
I am feeling content. I did some chores and that is a weight off my mind. I get a "When is spring?" thoughts every once in a while.
2. What, if any, external factors are you aware of in this present moment, like sights, sounds, smells, tastes, and touch?
I hear footsteps on the floor above, a car whir of tires gets louder and then fades away, the air is cool on my fingers, I hear the clicking of the keys as I type.
3. How's your body?
I like to sit up straight but that is not easy with old habits. I breathe in and let it go. Relief.
@EmunahHere
1. What emotions, feelings, and thoughts are you experiencing in this moment? contentment
2. What, if any, external factors are you aware of in this present moment, like sights, sounds, smells, tastes, and touch? sounds of the hallway, dim light, taste, and smell of mint tea
3. How's your body? pretty well
@EmunahHere Emotions, feelings- Love, easy going, calm, content. Thoughts- My friend Damon and getting my health better and thinking about my day I had today etc...Tastes- I am eating a Yoplait yogurt flavor strawberry banana(one of my fave flavors). Sounds- Music. Smells- None, sights- My apartment and stuff in it etc.... My body feels alright today/tonight.
@EmunahHere
Hiya Emunah thank you for this check in
1. What emotions, feelings, and thoughts are you experiencing in this moment?
Im feeling tired, distracted, frustrated(I locked my keys on car and had to pay)
2. What, if any, external factors are you aware of in this present moment, like sights, sounds, smells, tastes, and touch?
I am now home and my thinking is better. I am thinking on everything I have to be thankful for. But also need to focus and slow down some
3. How's your body?
Today my arthritis is acting up. So my hands hurt and my back. But still managing a good attitude is not hard for me.

@EmunahHere
1. asking myself if i am missing something i should pay more attention to (inside)
2. breeze coming through the window, cool feet, getting dark
3. more or less neutral
