In his appearance at BBC Newsbeat on the Mental Health Day, Prince William mentioned “a ‘toolbox’ to help you deal with unexpected obstacles in your personal life.” One of the tools may be mindfulness 🧘‍♂️ , defined by Jon Kabat-Zinn as “a moment-to-moment awareness of one’s experience without judgment.” Try this for 1 minute ⏱: close your eyes😌 and just observe what comes up, without dwelling on any of these thoughts that will necessarily circulate in your brain 🧠 , without judging them or developing them, just letting them go by. And comment below 👇 if you’ve noticed any difference. The difference I notice is that the thoughts that were buzzing in my head settle down like grains of sand in a glass of water 💦 , and as they settle it becomes more clear 💎 . My body also noticeably relaxes. Training this just for a minute ⏱ throughout the day it becomes automatic: mindful minute ⏱ => clearer mind 💎❤️😍😘.
