I wanted to start the week with some helpful information, from Mindful.org. Mindful.org gives us some good reasons meditation and mindfulness can benefit us.
1. Meditation almost certainly does sharpen your attention.
- this means that you can focus on your work better, you will find that you will know how to tune out distractions and be able to complete work in a more timely manner.
2. Long-term, consistent mediation does seem to increase resiliency to stress.
-right now is a different, difficult, and stressful time for us all, mindful mediation can help you calm those thoughts and feel less stressed
3. Mediation does appear to increase compassion. Is also makes our compassion more effective.
-remember mindful meditation helps us be aware of our feelings, accept our feelings, and process our feelings in a much more effective and beneficial way; doing so will help you connect with others and their feelings.
4. Meditation does seem to improve mental health.
-when we learn to calm our minds and still our bodies we can help our mental health
5. Mindfulness could have a positive impact on your relationships.
-again, when we learn to process our own feelings we connect better with the feelings of others, this increases compassion and empathy which strengthens relationships
6. Mindfulness seems to reduce many kinds of bias
- we learn to accept ourselves better, our present situation better, and then in turn we learn to let go of judgments and prejudices
7. Mediation does have an impact on physical health in a modest way
- we can help support our physical well-being but learning to slow our thoughts and bodies, accept our feelings and present moment, and reduce stress; stress harms the body, mindful mediation can work to help you heal that harm
I don't know about you but those all give me a renewed desire to make sure I complete my daily mindfulness.
What mindful activities have helped you during this time of staying home?
-I love to take time to slow down, sit still, listen to something calming, and take deep breaths
-When it is nice outside the sun and warmth brighten my mood
