Stress Busters for Environmental Leaders
Mastering the Moment: The Mindfulness Challenge!
Ready, Set, Go! Join me on a Journey of Awareness! I invite you to participate in an exciting Mindfulness Challenge! Let's apply the principles of mindfulness we've been learning together. As we've talked about, mindfulness revolves around doing one task at a time-- immersed fully in the present moment, aware and attuned.
Here's your assignment: identify four or five habitual actions that you undertake without much thought (and often lead to frustration) and challenge yourself to change these patterns. Next, locate your cherished piggybank (my personal favorite is a Cash Cow named Betsy) and gather up about 100 pennies or any other coins of your own choosing.
Over the next three days, monitor your progress in practicing mindfulness on the selected four or five behaviors. Every time you are absentminded or mindless, put a coin in your piggybank. Gauge your success each day by counting the accumulated coins and write the number down.
I will be candid and share my daily progress. If you feel inclined, you're welcome to share your journey too. Remember, this is not only a challenge but a journey towards self-awareness and mindfulness. Let's begin!!
#What are the 4-5 frustrating behaviors you have that you would like to change by being more mindful?
