Meditation

Hello and Welcome back!

There are way too many times we feel like we are under pressure and we make small mistakes, such as ; we spill the coffee in the morning, we forget our keys on the counter top, we forget our wallet, nametag , small stuff that are caused because we are feeling stressed and our mind is not living the present, our mind is constantly thinking about what happened yesterday and what could possibly happen next ... However, we will work on this in the healthiest way possible. First, I am going to make a reference to my past blog " 5 powerful habits that will change your life", you should take a look at it and take in consideration that we have to work on more than one habit to achieve our goals.Now, I am going to teach you how you are going to take control of your mind. Disclaimer, it will take time depending on the person and its situation, everyone is different.:

  • Find a time and place in the day that is completely quiet and you feel peace and calm, it does not matter if it is in your room, living room, balcony. Really make sure there is no distraction or disturbing sounds, and if inevitably there are disturbing sounds, put on some calming music in your headphones so you can concentrate better.
  • Sit comfortably; it can be a chair, your bed, the floor , wherever you want as long as you are comfortable.
  • Focus on your body, take 5 deep breaths and count each breath as you breath in and as you breath out , count to 10 then start all over again, then as your mind tries to think about something else, let it be, but bring it back to your body as soon as you can. Try to focus on your breathing without forcing it, just "watching your body breath"
  • For beginners I recommend practicing this for as little as 5 minutes a day , after a week, make it 10 minutes, and keep adding 5 minutes as you go on. Fun fact, if you feel like it is hard to meditate it means you need it more than you think. 

 Try this for atleast a week , you can practice this as many times as you desire, the more you practice it, the better you get at it and the closer you are to control your mind and your surroundings.

-Remember, Perseverance is Key!

Hello and Welcome to my Blog!  We say that we can't do exercise because of many reasons, we don't have time , we don't have the right motivation, etc. But, the truth is, we do have time , we just have to make time, for example; maybe instead of scrolling through social media for 2 hours you can use 1 of those hours, or even half an hour to do exercise. In this blog, i'm going to give you some tips I use to get out and just simply do it ! However, as I say in each blog, everybody is different and it takes time to adapt depending on the person.   Disclaimer: If you have any conditions please speak to your doctor before being physically active, the doctor will recomend the exercises you can and cannot do regarding your conditions. Get Ready the Night Before - The night before, grab a set of clothes and shoes to work out in and set it right next to your bed. This will make it easier for you when you wake up by saving you some time and energy! Look for the routine you are go...

Welcome back to my vlog!  You know how sometimes we feel stuck and we really don't know where to start ? Well today this will change ! I am going to list 5 most powerful habits so you can get going and bring the best versions of yourself to life ! First I know that it may be difficult to put some of them to practice right away. However, have in mind that there is no specific way to get where you want, the important step is to actually start. It does not have to be a perfect journey , in fact, that is the beauty of it ! 1- Exercise at least 30 min a day   Now, it does not matter if you go to the gym, go for a run, for a walk, some yoga, even just doing chores in your home (just get up and move!). A good way to stay consistent with this is putting an alarm on every day and doing it at the same time every day, it will become a routine and eventually become easier to maintain. Doing any type of exercise daily not only helps you physically , it helps your mental health as well, suc...
