The Mindful Step

Be happy. Even if the only thing that makes you happy is your morning tea. Live for that morning tea intake. Make it marvelous. Get excited about it. Buy mugs, buy a tea maker, buy a massive stock of teas so you can have an endless variety. Maybe learn how to make it, open up a tea business. Let that small happiness, whatever it is, become your passion. It’s what will keep you alive.

Today’s journal extract. 

Seriously. Do whatever it takes to keep yourself happy and alive.

Don’t get stuck. Move, travel, take a class, take a risk. There is a season for wildness and a season for settledness, and this is neither. This season is about becoming. Don’t lose yourself at happy hour, but don’t lose yourself on the corporate ladder either. Stop every once in a while and go out to coffee or climb in bed with your journal. Now is your time. Walk closely with people you love. Don’t get stuck in the past, and don’t try to fast-forward yourself into a future you haven’t yet earned. Give today all the love and intensity and courage you can, and keep travelling honestly along life’s path.

Instead of getting out of control with the hallowe'en candy, or depriving yourself entirely. Try this practice. Pick your favourite candy. In a quiet place, relax and enjoy unwrapping your treat. Close your eyes and take a bite. Notice the flavour, the texture. How do you feel? Does it being back memories? Enjoy the candy, you deserve the pure enjoyment of eating something that you want. Don't deprive yourself, instead #practice #mindfulness #enjoythemoment. The satisfaction of enjoying something you wanted reduces your need for excessive amounts. #noguilt #enjoyyourlife #satisfaction

Nature provides the ultimate opportunity to regroup. Have you touched a tree lately? Or smelled a flower? Have you been hit by the cool fall breeze or stepped through a small stream. Take 10 minutes today and walk around a familiar place, notice the air, the trees, the sounds. Feel your feet hitting the ground and your arms swing into place. Watch the things around you, step in a puddle. Don't worry for 10 minutes, just take mindful steps aware only of what you're doing and where you are. It's magical and relaxes you far more than any of the alternatives. Breathe, appreciate and be amazed today - if only for 10 minutes. You deserve it! #mindfulsteps #nature #trees #stepinapuddle #dirtydogpaws #fallair #30daysofmindfulsteps #fresh #recharge #beamazed

224 calorie breakfast with 19 grams of protein and 10 grams of fat! #goodfood #eatclean #dairyfree #glutenfreebreakfast. The goods: 4 egg whites, 3 cups of spinach, 1/4 white onion, 1/4 green pepper, 3 cherry tomatoes, 1 tsp avocado oil, 1 slice of Daiya Cheddar cheese. Sauté the green peppers and onions in a 1/2 tsp of avocado oil. Add the cherry tomatoes. Add the spinach when the cherry tomatoes have lost their firmness and the onions are translucent. Pull all the veggies out once the spinach has wilted. Add the remaining avocado oil and cook the egg whites on medium low heat and covered until the top of the egg white is cooked as well. Add the veggies and flip the egg white over so it forms a half circle. Add the Daiya cheese to the top. Turn off the heat and cover the pan until the cheese has melted. Plate and enjoy! 😊
