How to be Mindful in your Daily Life

The following steps can help you to be mindful when dealing with the ups and downs of daily life:

1. Allow and accept the different feelings you experience – knowing these will change throughout the day.

2. Don’t judge yourself for having negative feelings.

3. Don’t believe every thought that pops into your head. Some of these are true, but many will be false.

4. Slow down and take life at a manageable pace.

5. Stay in the present; do one thing at a time.

6. Let go of the need to control everything.

7. Practise being curious; notice little things.

9. Nourish and take care of your body and mind.

10. Practice contentment and gratitude.
