Inner-Peace: Meditation For A Healthy Mind
A mindfulness practice is about being aware of the present moment without judgment. It is not about stopping all thoughts but accepting whatever is happening right now.
1. Take 5-10 minutes for this practice
2. Become aware of the present moment.
3. Simply notice any thoughts in the mind or sensations in the body.
4. Let go of any judgments.
5. When the mind wanders come back to the present moment.
Come back to whatever is happening right now. Taking a few minutes to practice in this way is a powerful way to wash away the mental anguish, hurt, irritations and anger that builds up in the course of the day ⏤ helping us live happier lives.
“Mindfulness is moment to moment non-judgmental awareness.”
Mindfulness helps you deal with tensions at home or stresses from the job. It can be used by students to better deal with the pressures of student life. It can help people better cope with loneliness, physical illness, depression, irritation, anger and can help increase a sense of compassion, kindness and love towards themselves and others. It is beneficial to all groups ranging from moms and dads, professionals, students, the elderly and anyone who is interested in taking care of their mental well-being.
Meditation: A Necessity Not A Luxury
We, as a society, are re-learning how to take care of our minds after having focused, for centuries, primarily on the body. Our minds are our most important asset and keeping it healthy and nourished is no longer a luxury but a necessity.
If every single individual in our neighborhood learned the art of taking care of their mind (for that matter our entire planet), with simple daily steps, imagine how much more self-confidence, peace, productivity and helpful solutions we each could experience and contribute towards.
Taking a few minutes to meditate and visualize are powerful ways to wash away the mental anguish, hurt, irritations and anger that builds up in the course of the day ⏤ helping us live happier lives.

To Accept Yourself
