I’m almost done with a week of breathing exercises as part of my 30 Day Mindfulness Challenge. I have to say that I really enjoyed the Headspace meditations, and am not so excited by the breathing exercises. Today I did the same one as I did yesterday. Take deep breathe in, breathe out, etc…while counting […]

It’s hard to believe it’s been almost two weeks of my 30 Day Mindfulness Challenge. I still think that the first week, doing guided meditations was easier for me. Today I decided to try a breathing exercise that is good for when you have a hard time letting go of thoughts. It’s similar to some […]

So after doing 7 days of meditating for my 30 Day Mindfulness Challenge, I now want to spend the next week doing something else mindful. I did continue to meditate today though, using Headspace. It was my first one that was 15 minutes, and it felt long! In fact, there was one portion where it […]

I can’t believe it’s been an entire week now since I started my 30 Day Mindfulness Challenge. That means I’ve now meditated using Headspace for 7 days in a row! What did I think? Well, today even though I still had a hard time being mindful, I did feel a little more relaxed by the […]

I have now done the Headspace guided meditations for 6 days in a row as part of my 30 Day Mindfulness Challenge. I’ve never even done two days in a row…although not because I didn’t want to. For years I’ve been hearing and reading about how being mindful, and specifically meditating can really help you […]
