MINDFULNESS MONDAY: Living life more mindfully can help you to handle stress when it arises, and also experience life more fully, with more joy and gratitude.
Mindfulness is the ability to be fully present, aware of where we are and what we're doing and not be overly reactive or overwhelmed by what's going on around us.
Mindfulness is a powerful tool to manage stress. Research indicates that when we consistently practice mindfulness, it lowers rates of anxiety and depression, and leads to better sleep, stronger relationships, and increased self-awareness.
An activity below can help you become mindfulness in 5 steps!
