Calm | Mindful Motivation

Calm Mindful Motivation Let's take a quiet moment before we start.

Think about how peaceful it is early in the morning,

Just before sunrise.

Everything is still and calm.

When we are worried or stressed,

Our body gets tense and our minds race.

This little mindful motivation practice can help us find a moment of calm and peace even on a busy day.

Close your eyes gently or look softly at something nearby.

Think of a place that makes you feel calm.

Maybe it's listening to the waves on a beach or a slow walk in nature,

Perhaps in a garden or park.

Imagine being there.

What do you see?

What do you hear?

And how does it feel?

Now,

Make a fist with your right hand.

Then,

Open your right hand slowly.

Notice how it feels as you close and open your right hand.

Now do the same with your left hand.

Close your left hand gently.

Then,

Open your left hand slowly.

Feel the muscles in your hand tightening and releasing.

Now,

Let's add our breath.

Breathe in as you close your right hand.

Breathe out as you open your right hand.

Do the same with your left hand.

Breathe in as you close your left hand.

Breathe out as you open your left hand.

This simple mindful practice,

Combining gentle movement with breathing can help you feel calmer and more centered,

Even when we are having a busy or stressful day.

It helps us to relax our body and quiet our mind.

We can do this anytime,

Anywhere,

When we need a moment of peace and calm.

Now,

When you're ready,

Slowly open your eyes and let's finish by taking a deep breath in and out.
