Episode #161 #1 Mindfulness Tool To Regulate Your Thoughts And Emotions

When I found myself having Monday blues last week, I turned to my favorite mindfulness tool while reminding  myself of the true nature of my mind.

There aren’t Monday blues, bad or good days, or happy Sundays (as people call it in America).

The quality of our days, regardless of what day it is or what is happening around us depends on how aware we are and how well we manage our thoughts and emotions.

This simple mindfulness tool is your internal resource available at all times and in any situation. Because paying attention to reality, to what is – is an art of self-regulation.

Often, we get stuck in our imagination. We either ruminate on our past or indulge in the vision of the future that doesn’t exist. Often, these visions aren’t compelling, inspiring, or uplifting.

In this episode, I will teach you a simple mindfulness tool I use daily. It will help you train your mind while embracing this moment which is all you ever have.

When you learn to differentiate between what is here and now and what is only your imagination or inner critic acting up, you’ll become the master in regulating your thoughts and emotions.
