Exactly that. It's so simple yet we can find it so hard to do. Life's pressures can make it feel impossible. Pausing amidst the chaos can be a radical act of self-care. I've just come from running a mindfulness session in a secret garden. Wonderful to see people get it. #mindfulness #calm #nature
It is lovely when people understand it. So many - understandably - feel anxious and panicked they think mindfulness is privileged nonsense that doesn’t relate to their situation. Yet, we know it applies to everyone. I came to it (and Buddhism) through my treatment for Complex PTSD. Better than meds!
I second this! No meds, just excellent therapy(grateful for this), meditation, and gym time.
