Learn to Be Mindful & Enter to Win An Arnicare Summer Essentials Prize Pack
The Holistic Moms Network (HMN), a non-profit organization that connects parents who are interested in holistic health and green living, continues to celebrate its 10th anniversary throughout 2013. As part of the celebration, HMN is challenging you to participate in its Holistic Living Challenges, a special campaign with monthly challenges, great prizes, and opportunities to learn and inspire others. To encourage us to be more thoughtful and aware, August’s challenge is “Be More Mindful.” Get involved and share your experience for a chance to win great prizes, including an Arnicare Summer Essentials Gift Bag, featuring Arnicare Gel, Cream and Tablets, Arnica montana 30C oral pellets, Sportenine, an Easy Guide to Homeopathic Medicines, and an Arnicare luggage tag. Here are some ideas to get you started:
- Give yourself a minute in the morning. Before you get out of bed, take a few deep breaths and give thanks for the day. Create some intention for the day by thinking of what you’d like to do (beyond the to-do list) and what you’ll be especially attentive to in regards to gratitude, respect, and communication.
– Put post-it notes around your home and office that say “Breathe.” When you see them, take a couple of minutes to notice your breathing and to feel the rise and fall of your belly.
– Notice what you eat. Tune into your senses by examining the color and texture of your food, smelling it before you eat it, and really feeling and tasting it once it’s in your mouth.
– When you lie down for bed, breathe deeply and clear your mind. Feel your breath and your body and focus on the sound of inhaling and exhaling. Continue this practice for around five minutes.
– Despite how much laundry is piling up or how many emails you have in your inbox, don’t fill every moment with doing. Take some time to simply be.
