Going Gentle: Are You Choosing Pressure or Presence?

Why Choose Pressure When We Can Choose Presence? 

Hello and Welcome Back to Going Gentle, where we talk about strategies we can use to decrease our stress and increase our peace! 
For this week's video, we're talking about the Mundane; and how we can choose to be present with all the tasks we do on a daily basis rather than getting stressed out and pressured by what we need to do next. 

Do you always find yourself in a hurry to get things done? All the time, right? 
We just can't seem to slow down our pace enough to actually appreciate our own efforts when we do what needs doing! 

Well, we can change that! Watch the video to get my take on the mundane and how we can approach it completely differently for well being and self care in the process. 

Every moment matters in this life; why waste it stressing out when we can bring calm and peace to our every day? 

Let's determine together to pay attention, stay aware and be in the MOMENT as much as possible. Our hearts (and bodies!) will thank us! 

JOURNALING PROMPT: 
What was the last mundane tasks you did? Where was your mind as you accomplished that task? Thinking ahead? Were you stressed out or calm in the process? 
Note the details of that time and strategize how you can Stay in the Moment the next time and see how different you feel. 

What sense do you like to use when staying in the moment with a task? 
Consistent awareness can really help to make the mundane more magical! Imagine that! 

​Remember that GENTLE is Magic!
