Before I jump off social media for a bit of quality 👶🏼 time, I thought I’d share some thoughts on GROUNDING. Something I’ve hugely needed myself over the past week ⛰ When your mind is racing all over the place, grounding is a brilliant way to help bring you back to the here-and-now and, in doing so, quickly calm overwhelming feelings or anxiety. Grounding essentially means bringing your focus to what is happening to you physically, either in your body or in your surroundings. It helps you get out of the whirring of thoughts that are causing you to feel anxious. There are many ways to ground yourself when you feel anxious and overwhelmed, here are 4 of my favourites. They may seem obvious, but they’re also very effective... 1. Remind yourself who you are 2. Take 10 deep slow breaths 3. Feel the clothes on your body 4. Notice the objects around you. Bookmark this for when you need a reminder 💛 Do you have another favourite grounding technique? I'd love to know 👇🏻 #mentalhealthsupport #anxietysupport #anxietyfreetips #groundingexercises #positivemindsetcoach #mindsetcoachingforwomen #calmanxietytips #consciousbreathwork

Some simple Self Care ideas for the bank holiday weekend... Self Care is not about bubble baths, in reality it's mostly about small but powerful shifts in both the way we treat ourselves (mentally, physically et al) and others... But sometimes we need something immediate to help in the here in and now. So here's a list of a few of my favourite suggestions, bookmark for when you need a reminder 💛 #selfcaresuggestions #mentalhealthsupport #selfcarehacks #mindfulnesscoaching #mindsetcoaching

With the 👶🏼 arrival pretty imminent, I've been thinking a bit about silence... it’s something that’s always been v important to me, and now more than ever... (currently listening to Dan try and put dolly to sleep, spoiler it’s q loud 🙉) So, if I'm feeling particularly stressed/overwhelmed or distract-able I'll use music, but most of the time I meditate in silence. It's how I was taught, and I find it works best for me. Plus, the challenges of sitting in silence, are often the very things which end up being some of the big benefits as they teach me important life lessons. Such as... 💫 Patience - Staying still and quiet is hard (and can be boring) and it's helped me become more patient in other areas of my life - such as mothering! 💫 Perseverance - I've found that the longer I meditate the more different stages I go through with it. And sometimes I do just want to give up... Not giving up has taught me to persevere in other areas of life too - such as dealing with rejection as a freelancer! 💫 Contentedness - This is such a big one! Feeling both amazing and awful after meditation has taught me to approach the rest of the good vs bad life events with more compassion and with the felt understanding that you can't have one without the other! Do you meditate in silence or do you love music? What else has meditation taught you? I'd love to know 👇🏻💛 #meditationbenefits #startingameditationpractice #mindfulmoment #developingpatience #takebadwiththegood #remediesforstress #positivemindsetcoach #mindfulnessforwomen #copingwithrejection #noiseawarenessday 
Dreary morning... or evening, or lunchtime, or afternoon! The beauty of a Mindful Moment membership is that it's all available to you, anytime. You set your own timetable. So, I know that Lucy (like many people) struggles to commit to a meditation practice on her own. I've been so happy to hear about how her Mindful Moment membership is helping her stick to something she knows really helps her mental health. Thinking you'd like to experience the same...?

Hopefully back with Season 3 towards the end of this year, after my 👶🏼 break 💛 
Pretty much this 💫 In recent years I've become way more cautious about how/when/why I expend my energy. Not sure if it's being a mum (and so permanently exhausted) or simply growing up and realising what matters most - probably a combo of the two! Is there anyone or anything you're sending your energy to where you just don't get much back?! Think about reclaiming that for yourself and those you love - this is 'self care' in its truest form 💛 Save for when need a reminder.
