DeStress on Monday to Stay Calm and Positive All Week
We have weekly practices in breathing, mindfulness and positivity to refresh your mind on Monday and help you manage stress all week.
Weekly Practices
Mindfulness is a form of meditation that involves concentrating intensely on the sensations around you. By bringing focus to one’s feelings, thoughts, and bodily sensations, mindfulness can be used to achieve a state of calm without self-judgement.
This Monday, write your own gratitude list that focuses on the people who make your life special to trigger feelings of love and thankfulness which will resonate with you throughout the week.
It’s always better to give rather than receive, especially when it comes to compassion. A small act of kindness, a compliment, a sign of appreciation has the power to immediately transform someone’s outlook.
Radiate kindness on Monday. When you practice kindness towards others it helps them, and surprisingly, it will help you too.
Is your life always on the go? Do you find yourself rushing a lot and even rushing meals? Our daily hustle can be stressful, but having a mindful meal could be a way to slow it down and provide you with a pleasant and healthy break.
This Monday, learn about how stress can cause damage to your brain and body and then find out how to prevent it before it becomes a nightmare!
If you need to destress from work, school, or just life in general, take a walk. Mindful walking can reduce your chances of problems with blood pressure, obesity, depression and heart disease long term.
Getting the proper amount of sleep can dramatically improve your physical health and mental wellbeing. This Monday, learn about how quality sleep can benefit your cognitive functions, physical health, energy levels, and mood.
