Are you Thriving or Barely Surviving?

Picture
In this fast-paced environment, it is easy to get caught up in mindless activities that are not adding value to you or your life.  While you may not even be aware or conscious to this way of living, just check in with your friends or family and get their opinion of how present you are in daily interactions. What about at work, are you engaged in creating new ideas or racing to get out the door feeling unsatisfied while your to-do list piles up every day? The scenario I am speaking of is barely surviving. 

When our life becomes one giant REPEAT button, we have stopped truly engaging in life affirming activities. You may ask yourself, how did I get here…. and have no clue because you stopped paying attention a while back.  Over time, a slow or maybe fast dissatisfaction will begin to pull on you, whispering in your ear that something is not quite right. Now what???

You are not alone.  Stress is all around us, circling our bodies. We are in a constant fight or flight response while we try to numb our way back to calm.  We have learned to live with stress and it is causing a negative impact on our body, mind and emotional response leading to chronic conditions, increased healthcare costs, lost time at work and many unproductive days.

While I do not have any easy fix, I can suggest a new perspective, called Mindfulness. The Cambridge Dictionary defines mindfulness as “The practice of being aware of your body, mind, and feelings in the present moment, to create a feeling of calm." Mindfulness is about observing yourself without criticism while being compassionate with yourself.

In my one-hour program, I explore a Mindfulness Meditation technique to:

  • remain calm during high stress situations
  • promote a more positive way of being
  • cultivate joyful living in the present moment
 
I am bringing this program to corporations with the intention of positively impacting culture, employee engagement and overall productivity through a lunch and learn setting. Leave a comment or schedule a call to learn more at 630-408-1041.
