I do understand that the Winter Season can be triggering for many out there. Moods change, mental health gets words, physical health issues may rise and so on. Hugs to each one of you that face this Mindfulness though can play an important role for anyone who wants to try and change how things go in this time of year. But HOW Rumple? First take a deep breath and know this too will be ok

So here are a few mindfulness skills that you can try now-YES try now and prepare yourself for when you get snow if you have not already:

1. If youre in an area where ponds freeze over, go watch a pick up hockey game. Listen to the sound of skates on the ice. Follow just the puck, or pick a skater and watch just them.

2. Play in the snow! Feel a snowball as it forms in your hand. One-mindfully have a snowball fight with your kids or friends or even your dog

3. Get a hot chocolate and dip it slowly, noticing the warmth. See how long you can track the heat as it cascades down your throat.

4. Try a snowflake themed meditation. Picture them falling all around you, landing on you. Try and imagine different crystal shapes. Watch them melt on your palm.
