Mindfulness Daily Check-In October 8, 2017
Mindful Body Check-In
Hello, everyone
It is Sunday, and its time for a little mindful check-in with our bodies! Sometimes, we can slide over this part of mindfulness, forgetting that being present to our bodies is one way to practice mindfulness.
Take a minute or two today to be fully present to your body. Recognize that you are a whole person, even if some body parts arent functioning properly or if youre experiencing some pain. Accept whatever your body is telling you or whatever you feel without judging. It is okay to just be how you are, right now.
After finding a comfortable position for sitting, reclining, or lying down, share your answers to the questions below!
Questions:
1. What is your body telling you today? Does it need sleep or rest? Does it need nourishment? Does it need exercise?
2. What sensations did you notice while you mindfully checked-in? Any itches, dry skin, oily skin, warmth, coldness, tightness, aches, or cramps?

@EmunahHere
Emunah thank you for this check-in. Today my body is telling me to slow down, my back is hurting a bit. But today I have lots to get cleaned and gone through. I also struggle a bit with OCD and things have to be cleaned and in orcer. But now I am focusing on here, and then doing 1 thing at a time.
@RumpleSteeleSkin
Hey, Rumple! Thank you for checking-in here 
I am sorry to hear about your back pain; I hope that it goes away soon
Doing one thing at a time is a great way to slow down as well if we have so much to do. We are less likely to make a mistake when we are doing one thing at a time as well. Experiencing OCD symptoms can be really challenging while trying to get tasks done, but I wish you success today with all that you need to do!
hi @EmunahHere. Happy Sunday. You asked:
Questions:
1. What is your body telling you today? Does it need sleep or rest? Does it need nourishment? Does it need exercise? Definitely telling me to rest. Found it hard to keep my eyes open so I napped today. Feel better now.
2. What sensations did you notice while you mindfully checked-in? Any itches, dry skin, oily skin, warmth, coldness, tightness, aches, or cramps? Noticed the stickiness of the humidity today. Aftermath of Nate is going through here.
