This week on Health Coach Answers we are continuing onto part 2 of “How to practice mindfulness.” When thinking of ways to practice mindfulness, two of the most common and used tools are breath work and meditation! These practices force us to focus not only on our physical body through breathing but also brings more focus to our mental and emotional care as well. Mediation is not only something that helps with mindfulness but can also aid in stress reduction, controlling anxiety, heighten self-awareness, lengthen attention span, improve sleep and decrease blood pressure. Lastly, one of the main reasons I believe mediation is an essential tool is that it can be done anywhere and anytime!! If you have tried mediation and found it is not for you, some other tools to practice mindfulness can be progressive muscle relaxation, therapy, journaling, taking pauses throughout the day for yourself, taking breaks from social media and getting outside. If you are wanting to see if meditation is a fit for you we have an amazing series called ‘Mindful Meditations with Justin Nassiri.’ Ask your coach for more info if you are wanting to add it to your schedule or, you can find it <a href="/track-summary/ef94d43a-5da5-4576-909f-b088fcbc0295">here</a>

Kathy F I love the series, and it's worth watching more than once for reinforcement! the videos are generally short and easy to follow. I found the "walking meditation" session tues in very well with the balance program I'm also following!!
