Exploring Mind-fitness for Wellness

You might have seen people improving with mindfulness or meditation. Maybe you're more interested in mental wellness. Perhaps you're feeling ready to learn how to reduce stress, improve emotions, focus, relationships, creativity, and happiness in life.

Your decision to start is an achievement. You may wonder if it works, how hard it is, and if you're prepared. Find answers in our FAQs.

To make it easier, think of mental wellness like a workout routine for your mind.

Where to start?

Start by cultivating a growth mindset, allow yourself to be a beginner, to experiment, celebrate small victories, and be honest without judgment. Remember, this is a personal journey, not a race, so progress at your own pace.

A helpful first step is to reflect on your current state and define achievable objectives. This self-reflection will guide your path and allow you to track your progress. Check out the following list for specific steps, and stay tuned for practical templates in the resource section soon. If you have any immediate questions, feel free to email me.

  • Pay attention to specific situations, people, or environments that trigger negative emotions such as stress, sadness, anger, etc. Be honest about why these feelings arise. Understanding these triggers can help you better manage your responses.

    Example: Work-related triggers could include receiving critical feedback from a supervisor. In your personal life, triggers might arise when feeling ignored or unappreciated by a partner. Reflect on these triggers and how they make you feel.

  • What are the observable benefits that you hope to achieve by committing to spending a few minutes per day to train your mind? This can give your practice direction and purpose.

    Example: I hope to feel 10% less stress by the end of the week, or I’d like to feel 10% more rested when I wake up in 10 days.

  • Use a timer to pause for two minutes several times a day, especially before or after a trigger event:

    1. Focus your attention on the center of your chest.

    2. Breathe deeply and slowly, feeling the breath flow in and out through the center of your chest.

    3. Find a comfortable pace that allows you to fully experience each breath.

  • Reach out to a trusted friend, family member, coach, or therapist to discuss your struggles, your new mindfulness practice, and your goals. Ask them to be your accountability partner or consider joining you in the practice to compare notes and provide mutual support.

Life can feel tough and sad sometimes, but we can find meaning and joy in each moment if we choose to appreciate the journey. Yes! It is a personal decision
