Effect On Emotions

Mindfulness has given me tools to reset. Instead of going from zero to 100, mindfulness helps me shift in the moment. We choose and reset and take a breath.

Thoughts On Breathing

Regarding breathing, I will share a quote by Joan Burry Sanko [not clear who this author is]. She's written many wonderful books. I met her at a conference many years ago. And she talks about how the breath is always with you. And I love to remind my clients and colleagues and also myself.
My breath is always with me wherever I go. I take a breath to read and choose to clear, and it's a powerful reminder of how powerful our breath is to guide us and comfort us and aerate our lungs and our brain.

Bullying Story

The story that comes to mind is actually one that I experienced as a child. And when I was growing up, the word bullying wasn't used as much as it is today. And I can say, with all the love in the world, my mother's in heaven now. But at times my mother could be a bully. And I feel mindfulness would have helped me a lot. It also would have helped her.
So, I love that mindfulness and mindful self-compassion are being woven into school curriculums, even elementary schools. Back to the power and mindfulness of stopping and pausing and reseting instead of going into react.
I feel strongly that embedding tools of quieting the mind and body, stopping and taking a breath, and resetting are good for people of all ages in every culture, wherever you live.
