Notice. Allow. Surrender.

Ever feel like you’re just going thru the motions day-to-day? What were to happen if you started paying attention to your movements?

Mindful movement, what is it? It is less a focus on achieving the perfect posture and more about focusing on the body/mind awareness. When you develop movement routines and activities that are more than just physical, but instead, done mindfully, you allow your mind to focus, engage and be present. Breath supports movements, and your attention helps you feel the subtleties of actions. You get the most of your physical activity.

The benefits of mindful movement:

• Lower stress and anxiety: reduce the mental conditions that have a physical impact
• Improve level of focus: bring your attention to the here and now.
• Mindful movement can help you strengthen your focus, relieve your stress levels and curb anxiety.

Think mindful movement yoga is not for you? Think again!

Whether you have physical limitations or not, modifying your movements in a way that makes them doable for you and sensing what is appropriate for you, is mindfulness. There’s no downside to giving it a try and seeing how it benefits you. Nothing special to get started… just go ahead and give it a go!
