A Breather: Curated Mindfulness Resources For You
Hey there,
Every now and then, it's essential to pause, take a step back, and assess. This week, rather than delivering my regular newsletter content, I thought of sharing something a bit different, something to nourish your mindfulness journey even further.
I've curated a list of resources, books, movies, and websites—all centered around mindfulness. So why not take this opportunity to deepen your understanding and practice?

Taking a breather this week gives time to refresh, recharge, and provide better content for you in the coming weeks. Meanwhile, I hope these resources serve you well. Dive deep, discover, and allow yourself to be enriched by these pearls of wisdom.
Train Hard, Breathe Easy,
Jon
P.S. Remember, just as in mindfulness, the journey into these resources is as important as any destination or endpoint. Enjoy the JOURNEY!

1 年Yes! All of these powerful thought leaders are bringing the awareness we need to radically transform our lives by focusing on our inner world. When we stop being reactive to outside circumstances and can be in flow, we have the space to redirect our thoughts and become creators rather than spectators. I look forward to your newsletter.
