Mindful movement : using directive cues, learn to move your body in a way that feels right for you.
When you find yourself waiting in line, or traffic, or for your water bottle to fill up, instead of pulling out your phone to scroll, take 30 seconds to practice mindfulness.
This practice can be done standing or seated.
Begin by noticing your feet on the floor. Press the toes into the ground. Notice the sensation this creates in the feet. Now press your heels into the ground. Notice how the sensation changes.
Notice your breath. Take your time as you inhale then slowly exhale.
Take time to notice any tension in the body. If you feel tension in the back, straighten the spine and notice how you feel. If you feel tension in the shoulders, move the shoulders down the back and take a long exhale out. Continue to move and breathe. If your mind wanders, simply come back to your breath and notice the sensations in the body.
