Self-Care for the Mind

2 Self-Care for the Mind

Pay attention to a daily activity that you usually do on automatic pilot, like brushing your teeth. Take the time to slow down and really notice the sensations of this simple routine.
Set a timer for one minute. Use this brief amount of time to pay attention to your breath, observing the sensations as you breathe in… and out.
Read an uplifting or inspiring article, book, or collection of quotations.
Set a timer for 10 minutes, and use that time to organize or clean up a messy area of your home or work space. Notice how much better you feel after decluttering.
