The Habit Thrive Podcast ~ Self Care Habits, Mindfulness & Wellness Routines for Women 50 & Beyond

Do you feel that?🤔

The energy in the air, swirling all around us.🤗

Between the time change, the spring🌷 equinox, full moons and the solar eclipse coming up, we here at the Habit Thrive Podcast are absolutely overflowing🙌 with energy!

For the month of March, we have been channeling that energy into our spring and summer🌞 planning.

Today, we’re going to counter our uptick of energy with some recentering🙏 and rebalancing practices.

The first step to accomplishing this is mindfulness.

So, take a moment and ask yourself:

How do I feel?

What do I need?

What am I grateful for?

Your response may be something like:

I am feeling tired. I need a day off or at least a few hours to myself to relax. I’m grateful that my hard work is bringing me fulfillment and financial security.

Recognize☝️ where you are and what you need, but don’t lose sight of the positive🥰 emotions that sometimes get drowned out by anxiety, depression, fatigue and worry.

Then, try some mindfulness exercises to help you feel more centered and in control:

Meditation:

Lying in bed, try turning on your favorite meditation and setting a timer. Just a short meditation gets you breathing, refocused and ready to go.

Tapping:

Your hands are your tapping tools, and you take them everywhere you go! No apps or phones are needed for this one.

Mantras:

Reciting your favorite mantra is a great way to get centered. Keep one readily accessible on your phone or a piece of paper in your wallet. Before long, you will have it memorized and can use it any time, any place.

You might find that you need a quick tapping session before you get out of bed in the morning.🥱

Or maybe you have a mantra for long, tough days🫨 that you like to repeat to get you through the mid-afternoon slump.

Or a nighttime meditation after a warm bath might get you relaxed and ready to let go into sleep.😴

Or maybe you like all of these!😊

GIve them a try, switch them up and make the most of the tools that work for you.
