A little reminder for participants in yesterday’

A little reminder for participants in yesterday’s Meditation & Mindfulness ‘Superpower’ session yesterday. A great addition to their Corporate Wellbeing Day.
⁣
A little desk card to visually remind staff that they have the power to positively influence their nervous system and ‘reverse-engineer their mood’ (Stanford Uni. study) by attending to their breath. ⁣
⁣
We started the morning with:⁣
⁣
- four Meditative Breathwork exercises to calm and relax 🧘🏼‍♀️⁣
⁣
Then, later in the morning:⁣
⁣
- a Mindful Movement series to awaken and energize 🔋⁣
⁣
Inside this little card are some reminders of the exercises we did together, and some Mindfulness questions:⁣
⁣
*How does your breath feel right now?⁣
⁣
*How does your body, your mind and your life energy feel in this moment?⁣
⁣
As we all try to navigate the ongoing changes in the way we work, independently and as part of team, from home or returning to an office environment .. stress and loneliness are a shared experience.⁣
⁣
Having some practical and powerful tools to enhance your sense of well-being, connection to others, and focus - is vital.⁣

Another fun day preparing for a corporate Meditation & Mindfulness ‘Superpower’ session tomorrow.⁣
⁣
When the client said they were putting together some wellness bags .. I was IN!⁣
⁣
Who doesn’t love a take home showbag!⁣
⁣
I’ve included:⁣
⁣
*a little Quiet Mind tealight candle for a restful pause at home 🕯 ⁣
⁣
*a little reminder card that can sit on your office desk with some Breathwork and Mindful Movement practices (which I shall be sharing in person).⁣
⁣
The ‘Superpower’ session focusses on the power of our breath .. to positively influence the nervous system, release stress and anxiety, improve our sense of well-being and even adjust your mood!⁣
⁣
We shall practice some Breathwork that is particularly effectively in calming and relaxing (Power Down) and then some breath and Mindful Movement practices that energize and clear the mind (Power Up) - so participants will have some ‘power tools’ in their life toolbox during these challenging times.⁣

Effortlessness: noun. The ability to perform witho

Effortlessness: noun. The ability to perform without apparent effort: ease, easiness, facileness, facility, readiness.⁣
⁣
Sometimes meditation is seen as too difficult, uncomfortable, too serious or complex, or boring.⁣
⁣
And sometimes it is .. other times it can be insightful, invigorating, calming, peaceful and life affirming. Sometimes blissful and healing.⁣
⁣
So be curious about any tendency to distract yourself with these stories or expectations .. and see if you can invite a sense of effortlessness.⁣
⁣
For just a few minutes.⁣
⁣
And today.
Just sit.⁣
⁣
Don’t try to ‘do’ anything.⁣
Just sit.⁣
⁣
Maybe you will find your breath or a sensation or a sound.⁣
Rest there.⁣
⁣
With a sense of effortlessness and ease.
⁣
Just be kind.⁣
Be patient.⁣
Smile.⁣
Give thanks.⁣
⁣
Then return to your day or task.⁣

Oh my .. I’ve just had so much fun this week creating my own pack of Daily Heartfulness and Guidance Cards - and ritual guide.⁣
⁣
These shall be gifted to my wonderful members in ‘the Seasonal Lounge’ .. for our April theme of HEARTFULNESS.⁣
⁣
❤️⁣
⁣
Each month I love to curate and send a little gift to members as a tangible reminder of our theme .. and this creative project has inspired me in such a profound way (more to come on that later!).⁣
⁣
There is great power and magic in words .. and the words I have chosen for these cards embrace all the delicious qualities of a mindful and heart-full life.⁣

It’s cooooold today. 🥶⁣
⁣
My morning meditation now finds me sitting upright in bed (staying warm and cozy) with my back supported by a mass of pillows and cloaked in my favorite meditation shawl.⁣
⁣
All designed to keep me warm and meditating .. and today I share another installment of my ‘52 Reasons Why You Should Meditate’ - ⁣
⁣
#6 Improved Resistance to Cold and Flu⁣
⁣
A little insight from my own practice and some scientific research in this field.⁣
⁣
Like seriously .. why wouldn’t you?⁣

⁣
April 11th was World Breathing Day!⁣
⁣
This is an annual event instigated by the international Breathwork Foundation in recognition that:⁣
⁣
‘breathing consciously plays a key role in health and wellbeing, unity, quality education, equality, self-empowerment, and inner and outer peace’.⁣
⁣
Our breathe is our super power and power-tool!⁣
⁣
Alongside the knowledge gained from the ancient practice of meditation, there is now sufficient scientific evidence that intentional deep breathing can calm and regulate the autonomic nervous system (ANS), slow our heart rate and lower blood pressure, and provide an almost immediate sense of calm and ease.⁣
⁣
IN FACT:⁣
⁣
How we breathe has a profound impact on our physiological and psychological well-being, and there is a breathing pattern associated with the sense of ease and calm, and a breathing pattern associated with anger and frustration (and much more in between).⁣
⁣
I loved reading the study from Stanford University School of Medicine and the University of California that suggested that it is indeed possible to ‘reverse engineer your mood simply by altering breathing’.⁣
⁣
Meditative Exercises are short, straightforward and powerful tools to have in your life toolbox – and I am sharing seven of my favorite practices in the ⁣

This week I met the creator of a beautiful and unique creative project ‘Inside The Linez’.⁣
⁣
Sharni was inspired during the 2020 lockdown to reach out to a group of emerging and established artists and create this interactive art experiment.⁣
⁣
The result is a beautiful collection of 30 line-drawings from all over the world .. curated to ⁣
⁣
‘inspire people to colour more and worry less’⁣
⁣
And each artist has been inspired by a favorite cover song that is linked to each artwork!⁣
⁣
Armed with paint, watercolor, pencils or markers .. with a Spotify playlist in the background .. you become the Colourist and on completion have an art-pad quality piece to hang or gift 🎨⁣
⁣
On this grey Melbourne day I have opened to:⁣
⁣
Artist: Jessica Singh
Song: You’ve Got The Love - Florence and the Machine

This is my mantra ... Breathe.⁣
⁣
This is also my favourite tattoo.⁣
⁣
And this week has been a doozy of a reminder to pause and breathe.⁣
⁣
I think every technical device in my business (and life) have been acting up in recent weeks .. perhaps you read or saw how my FB was hacked and the roll on effect including money being siphoned out of my account!⁣
⁣
My website has also been broken .. with a major rebuild looking like the only solution.⁣
⁣
Even my IPad and Apple Watch are incommunicado right now.⁣
⁣
So I did shed a tear of frustration, at how difficult it seems to be to make simple fixes and get those in charge to take action.⁣
⁣
And I stopped many times to just .. BREATHE.⁣
⁣
And breathe. And breathe.⁣
⁣
With a little half smile on my lips .. because I know ‘this too shall pass’ (my other fav. mantra).⁣
⁣
What a week!⁣
⁣
Yeah - weekend ⛱⁣
⁣
Are you on my monthly newsletter list ‘Quiet Mind’? I have some fun news to share, Autumn classes, free meditation sessions and some tips on navigating frustration and overwhelm in life and in meditation.
