Mindfulness Practice: Wake Up the Body First
A simple way to connect to the present moment with pleasure
“Rejoicing in ordinary things is not sentimental or trite. It actually takes guts.” Pema Chödrön
Do you wake up struggling to get out of bed, anxious about the day to come, or with much joy and pleasure as you connect to infinite possibilities of being?
Here is a mindfulness practice that I actually do every single day. It is a simple practice that brings us energy and joy, and it only takes five minutes.
This is one of the 50 mindfulness practices that I share in my book, “Bullshit-free Mindfulness”. Get your copy here — it is available in print and ebook formats. Have fun!
Wake Up the Body First
What is the very first thing you do when you wake up? On one hand, it’s not unusual to wake up and stay in bed thinking about what one is to do on that day, reaching out to the phone to check messages and emails. On the other hand, it is a productivity hack to get out of bed as soon as one wakes up.
This week, we are doing it differently.
Instead, we are going to connect with our bodies before we get out of bed.
