Mindful Monday: An Update

I have a confession to make…

Mindful Monday has taken a backseat to, well, life. I’m not proud of it.. but it’s the pattern for me. I have never been able to make time for meditation every single day for an extended period of time. Maybe I’m just not ready. Maybe I’m not disciplined enough. Maybe I don’t have what it takes. But for whatever reason, I’ve fallen off the wagon once again. It was nice while it lasted.

I take a lot of deep breaths during my work day. And I’ve been practicing standing on my hands a lot lately.. II practice mindfulness every time I take my dog for a walk.

Does that count?

    Yes, those things count. It's not always asana. We often engage in Bhakti and Karma yoga without consciously realizing it.

    I want to share my favorite two books on meditation/mindfulness:
    Eating Mindfully by Dr. Susan Albers
    and
    Women Food and God by Geneen Roth *This book talks about her trials and tribulations with meditation. I'm sure you would be able to relate to it.

    Yes! The fact that you're aware of this counts 🙂

    Yes it all counts. Don't beat yourself up. You have just started a new job and it takes time to get into a regular routine. I hope you are enjoying your new work.
    Wishing you a day of peace 🙂

Namaste, mama!

I'm Erica. I'm a yoga teacher who helps pregnant and new mamas find more balance in their life through yoga, mindfulness, self-care, inspiration, community, and humor. I spoil my yoga students rotten (in a good way!), and it's my mission to teach mamas that it's not selfish to spoil themselves every now and then, too.
