Mindfulness Practices talked about on today's show:
Start your day mindfully (set intention… breath work)
Mindful meals
Meditation (we discuss the difference and how this is all tied together)
Mindful pauses throughout your day
Mindful workout / movement (Guest Dr. Theresa Larson)
Mindful shower (maybe even cold!)
Mindful driving (driving in silence… use stop signs, red lights, traffic jams as opportunities to breathe and “just be”)
Also, we discuss
Ways of Letting go
Find your Breath
Body Awareness practices
How can we listen better?
Walking Meditation
Being in Nature
Using meditation / mindfulness as a cardiac nurse/surgeon!
Finding Equanimity
Keeping Focused
working through Anxiety
Diffusion Depression
Gratitude
Loving Kindness
And lastly, we discuss hangups about mindfulness:
I don’t know where to start - so I just won’t
I’m good… I don’t need it
Woowoo / weird
Religious
Too busy
Too distracted / mind races too much
It’s selfish
It takes too long to see / feel the benefits
Expectations vs reality (it’ll solve everything in the first meditation / my mind will be completely blanked out during the meditation / I’ll find bliss in every meditation)
