When you think of mindfulness, what do you picture?
Someone sitting with their legs crossed on a yoga mat, or listening to a guided meditation?
Yes, mindfulness can look like thatbut at its core, the practice is about focusing your attention.
And one of the most powerful ways to do that is by pairing movement and journaling.
To be in a state of mindfulness is to be entirely immersed in what you are doing.
And movement and writing are two practices that are easy to get immersed in.
Journaling on its own is also generally a mindful activity because it involves self-reflection, introspection, and compassion.
How does the ground feel against your feet as you move?
What does the lighting look like around you?
What can you hear, taste, smell, touch, see?
Write down what you notice.
So make a run at set aside a regular time for your new movement and journaling combo.
