Mindfulness seems to be trending these days and perhaps it's very poignant given so much distraction temptation in our lives (Facebook, YouTube, texting, email, gaming). Today's episode describes how Mindful Rights and Lefts can help you get and stay mindful. Questions: 1. Which hand did you use to press play on this episode? 2. Which hand did you use to get toothpaste onto your toothbrush this morning? 3. Which hand did you open the fridge door with? 4. Which arm goes through a sleeve first when you put a shirt on? 5. Which foot goes in first when you take a bath or shower? 6. Which foot goes first when you walk through a door? 7. Which foot do you use when opening a step trash can? Today’s actionable tip has three levels. It’s totally up to you which level you want to take action on. Level 1 Action: Notice This is noticing with hand or foot, arm or leg you use to complete a task. Pick a day and as you go through the day, notice which side of your body you're using to complete tasks you do every day. Level

Here's a simple strategy for daily meditation! Hey it's Josie with Affirmation Pod. Here's my first actionable tip! It's called the "Date to Meditate" Meditation. It's a super easy way to get meditation in your routine. Here goes... Before you go to sleep, think of today's date. Then take that many deep, relaxing breaths. For sample, if it's the 8th of the month, take a deeeep breath, and in your mind say "8." Then take another deeeep breath, and in your mind say "7" Repeat until you get to zero. That's it!! It's your "Date to Meditate" And so tomorrow night, you will take a deeeep breath, and in your mind say "9" (or whatever the date is). And repeat until you get to zero. Sometimes you might fall asleep before you get to zero, but hey, that's okay too - we all need solid rest!

What a wonderful world... I've moved on. Some may not accept it or respect it but I'm not changing it. I've moved on. I'm doing things differently now. I live free and I live healthy. I've moved on. I'm making better choices and I'm connected to better people. I'm strong and at peace with the changes in my life. Sure, some days it’s harder to be strong, but I know in my heart there’s no going back. I don't owe explanations. My health and happiness are how I measure my life. Every day I am more removed from the chains that bound me. Every day I am thankful for my courage to face reality and make the changes I needed to. Every test proves my growth and maturity and how much I've moved on. The past sometimes comes knocking, but I don't have to answer. I wish them the best, but I'm not one of them. I’m creating something new here and it feels very good. I'm part of something way more fulfilling, rewarding and loving for me. I'm so grateful for what I have now and I wouldn't trade it for anything. Affirmations by

Keeping work in check... I used to think I needed to work all the time, now I know I need balance and rest. I used to think work would give me the fulfillment I wanted. Now I know my health is my wealth and that I need to pay attention to my needs. I used to think everyone else would get ahead of me if I didn't work as hard or as much as others. Now, I know this isn't a race. This is my life and I can choose what provides the most health and happiness for me. I used to think that validation from certain people at work would be the best thing ever. Now I know that valuing the love and support from my family and friends is the best thing ever. I also know that I can affirm myself at anytime...
