From Overthinking to Mindfulness: A Daily Practice for Better Health and Happiness

Recognizing that you are not your thoughts but an observer of them is a powerful shift that can significantly improve your overall health. By moving from overthinking to being mindful of your thoughts, you can unlock a range of benefits:

• Reduce mental suffering
• Improve physical well-being
• Boost mental and physical energy
• Increase productivity
• Enhance sleep quality
• Strengthen relationships

You can experience these transformative benefits by dedicating just 6 minutes a day to a simple mental exercise.

Your Daily Mindfulness Practice:

1. Find a comfortable position and close your eyes.
2. Count Down from 100 to 0: Visualize each number as you mentally count down. Before you begin, declare that reaching zero will bring you to a calm, clear mental state.
3. Refocus If You Lose Count: If your mind wanders and you lose count, gently start again at 100. This is part of the process.
4. Focus on Your Breath: Once you reach zero, spend the remaining time focusing on your breath. If your mind drifts, kindly bring your attention back to your breath.

This daily practice is like a workout for your mind. It strengthens your ability to manage your thoughts, recognize you are not your thoughts, and ultimately lead a more peaceful and productive life.

I’m rooting for your success! Karla
