Mindfulness Daily Check-In October 17, 2017
Why hello everyone
Ever feel like that kitty up there
I know I do alot today. So busy, so much work and life stuff. Where did my time go? WAAAWAAAAAA!!!! lol Has anyone tried really hard to be mindful just a bit while feeling like a couch potato? Well if you have well the couch is big enough for both of us.
How can mindfulness come to play while we just don't feel like it or just lazy-feeling? It can be done you know
So for this check-in I'd like the community to support each other on skills or things we can do to kinda stay afloat and be mindful.

@RumpleSteeleSkin oh Rumple !
I am reading book these days and unplugging myself more. I am feeling that it is really helping me.
@SunFern
Hiya Sunnie good to see you in check-in today So for you reading a good book and just unplugging helps you to be more mindful of you. That is great
@RumpleSteeleSkin That's how I am mindful. Questions?
@kindSoul10
OMG-LMAO
@RumpleSteeleSkin ohhhhh yess, budge up Rumple 
I seem to have had a few weeks of maybe more mind-lessness than anything (oops!) In a bit of a semi-conscious state where it's been one of those 'I should really focus on that a little more... hmm, later... tomorrow... next week...' and so on, and so now I'm a tad confused as to what I could have possibly spent the past however long doing! Back to basics methinks
Also I noticed it seems the 'a's and possibly some 'b's have been dropped off the tag list for some of the check ins
@AMusicalSilence
hiya Silent so nice to see you hereIm sorry to hear you kinda had a few "off" weeks. But hey- that is ok hun We all have them from time to time. I do know about those "shoulda-coulda woulda oh and what-ifs" too. Can I suggest something? How about right now you just figure out what you gonna do right now A walk, something good to eat, read a book, maybe some grounding. As we can't take back or change the past, wish we could you know. Biggest thing is no judging yourself hun. Accept this and know you are trying and doing a good job. Always great to see you around here
@RumpleSteeleSkin Ta Rumple I want to say how bizarre that you're the third person to have told me that today, but maybe bizarre is way off eh darn this linear time thing... or is it? oh well. Moving on Right now hmm... I reckon something likeeee:
@AMusicalSilence
Silence I am so glad to have you around and ur humor as well
@AMusicalSilence
oh yeah....
LMAOOOOOOOOO on the elephant couch potato
@RumpleSteeleSkin Today I became mindful by letting myself pause and simply enjoy the moment a few times. For instance, my boss brought his dog to work today so I let myself enjoy petting her. Also, when a customer came in, I paused and allowed myself the breathe and put on a smile before taking care of them.
Another way I was mindful was I noticed that the sky didn't have a single cloud in it and I allowed myself to embrace it's beauty. I also took in how orange hues of the sunset shined in my room!
Cleaned up one corner of my room. Whew!
hi rumple, there are some days where lots of things are on my mind, days (hopefully gone for ever) where i felt "oh everything is so good, i am ok, do not need to take care of myself" but i learned over and over again, i do need to take care even if everthing is fine or if i am too lazy, simply prevention. so i put earplugs into my ears and listen to something about "mindfulness" or i go into the garden.
Hello! For today, I simply focused on my breath, the cool breeze and the warmth from the sun shining on my face. Trying to let thoughts pass.
