Memory Exercises

Three-Thing Recall Pause a few times a day and intentionally notice 3 things.Then later, try to recall those 3 things without looking at notes. 2. Repeat and Restate When someone says something important, repeat it back in your own words. Example: “So you want me to call […]

Coming Back to Your Own Weird Little Soul

a Misty Mindfulness Moment Get yourself situated in whatever way feels the least annoying. Sit down.Lie down.Curl up like a little creature.Wrap yourself in a blanket if you want. We don’t need perfect posture.We don’t need to pretend to be enlightened.We don’t need to pretend to be serene. Just be here. Take a breath in.Let it out. You do not need to become calm immediately.You do not need to […]

Strengthening Your Sense of Self

Our sense of self changes as we go through life. It is not just something you find once and keep forever. Sometimes we coast by or get so stuck in survival that we forget what matters to us. We start feeling disconnected from ourselves and wonder what the heck happened. These questions are meant to help us notice ourselves more clearly and begin teasing out the noise that keeps […]

Let It Be Real, Let It Be Yours

A Pause to Be With Yourself

Returning to Time

a Misty Mindfulness Moment Feel yourself just being hereIn this body, in this moment.There’s need to rush, or force anything.Just… allow. Begin by noticing your breathing.Not changing it, just witnessing it.The inhale as it enters…The exhale as it moves out… Let yourself feel in the rhythm of that breath.The natural ebb and flow.Like waves, or a pulse.Like time, folding and unfolding itself in you. You don’t have to make […]
