Mindfulness Daily Check In March 1, 2018
Good morning everyone
Today is the first day of another month. A new vision on what to focus on. You can even see some grass in places where the snow melted. Very soon we are going to be seeing Spring pop through the earth. As many of us the weather determines our moods. 
When we anticipate a certain season we are actually being mindful. We are remembering how our senses were when it was a warm day, or cool days. Sunny days or just rainy chilly ones. For today I'd like for you all to share on
What is is about Spring you like?

@RumpleSteeleSkin, just the post I needed to remind me to have a mindful moment today. With a snow day (no work, whoop), I am sat looking out the window, counting down the days till spring. I can not wait till I do not have to scrape my car in the mornings.. But, what I love about spring is seeing new life begin, watching the flowers bloom and most of the feeling and smell of spring air.
@Char1otte
HIya Char1otte so good to see youYes yes for those snow days in!! OMG I'm so with you not cleaning my car. But then I practice mindfulness and see that I am grateful for a car to clean. I too love the new things mother nature brings out. I like get all "gitty" inside. Like some new energy. I do hope when that day comes to you that you are so mindful of the "new" coming
@RumpleSteeleSkin, what an inspiration...Maybe, I will try and be more mindful when scraping my car tomorrow morning. The only achievemnt I have had in this so far, is the feeling of numbness in my fingers :p
"Gitty" sound's wonderful... Further, new energy - Amazing! Take Good Care
@Char1otte
hahaha wear some gloves
Whenever I walk the queen coco (my dog) i try to practice mindfulness. Mostly through paying attention to my steps and taking calm breaths. I try to focus my attention on her and our experience togehter.
I like mindful movement
@Laura
@wingedtrish @Laura I love the name of your dog!
@Laura
HIya Laura wonderful to see you todaytaking walks with our dogs is a great way to be mindful of our surroundings and how we are feeling.And you got that right Coco is da queen
@Laura, 
This image has always stuck with me when walking my dog :)
@RumpleSteeleSkin
So excited for spring! The smell of the flowers and the ability of using my bike makes me really excited :)
@sensitiveShade5337 Yes! I get excited to ride my bike, too
@sensitiveShade5337
Hi Shade good to see you
@RumpleSteeleSkin
That pic is so inspiring to me! Makes me wanna style the basket of my bike 😊
Looking forward to Spring. Have been outside in fresh air a lot more. Just the warmth of the sun when walking is very relaxing. Enjoy your week.
@sail46
Hiya SailYes Spring time is an exciting time of year. Can't wait to have the sun shining and how it flows into my home.
What I love about Spring is the fresh smell. I love the coolness in the morning air and I love that the days get longer again
@wingedtrish
HI Winged good to see you Yes that smell of nature and the cool mornings is wonderful. also being able to enjoy the light of the day more is nice to. I do hope you get this realllllly soon
@RumpleSteeleSkin
Spring - walking through the lush green grass which feels refreshing to my soul, pausing at the crocus flowers which show me their colours and let me gently touch them, sitting on a rock feeling the warming energy of the sun whilst listening to the beautiful stories the birds are telling.
@amiablePeace77
Hiya Peace wow that sounds wonderful I wanna come with you please and enjoy being mindful too
@RumpleSteeleSkin
I absolutely love spring! It's like the entire world wakes up again, not just the hibernating animals, but everyone! The birds sing again, the trees sprout their leaves, the flowers peak at us again from underneath the soil and the sun greets us every morning with the biggest and warmest hug it got! Even the people seem more awake. Instead of these zombies that walk around the street to their work or grumpily sit in their seats in the trains, have a little more air in their steps, and the smile again!
That's what I love about the spring. And of course not only the old guys waking up again after a long winter, I absolutely love the new life toddling around too
@JayTheBird14
Hiya Jay I love how you were so mindful describing how Spring is to you. hahah "zombies" I do believe the weather does affect many in such a way it shows-zombie. Spring does bring about newness to everyone-kinda like waking up from a good long sleep. Wow Im so waiting for Spring now. Thank you for sharing on this

@RumpleSteeleSkin Hello! :) What I like about Spring is the rain and the flowers. I love the rain, and I am always at peace in Spring due to constant rainfall. I look forward to it!
@SaimaK
HIya Saima wonderful to see you today All I gotta say is "thumbs up-totally"
@RumpleSteeleSkin It is wonderful to see you too! :) And thank you! <3
Awh hello Rumple! Spring is so lovely; it really feels like a fresh start and new beginnings, it is full of hope for me :D
It has been snowing quite a bit here and it just adds to the freshness of spring, even though it is very cold I feel vibrant and energised to keep on going with things. Spring reminds me of daffodils, the lovely bright yellow flower. Daffodils is also the name of the poem by William Wordsworth which is rather beautiful and refers to elements of Romanticism and the power of nature. I feel this links to mindfulness, with nature and the appreciation of beauty, going on a walk and personally experiencing the different senses that have changed due to Spring.
Wishing you well <3
@peppermintlove
Hi Peppermint wonderful to see youSo yes Peppermint a new start new beginning I so agree! I like that you said it was full of hope for you-first time I heard this. We are over the snow,the wonderful sun is melting it almost all away. Yes lovely way of explaining how mindfulness is. Appreciating nature and how it helps our bodies feel good

@RumpleSteeleSkin I love seeing everything come back to life in the Spring! I love the smell of the wet earth in the morning and the subtle warmth of the sun on my skin, although there is still that cool breeze lingering.
