Remember Mindfulness – close eyes briefly

Mindfulness

Are you listening? When you’ve read this, close your eyes. Listen to the sound of your breathing, in through your nose and out through your mouth. Listen for your heart beating. Try moving other parts of your body. Can you hear tiny sounds of skin on skin, perhaps a joint gently creaking? Listen and identify if you can, the sounds around you. Buildings make sounds too. A door that shuts, a heating system that sighs. Footsteps pass outside, a dog barks, a distant car door opens. Our senses tell us so much. Take a minute to listen and relax. There is a reason for everything. Everything has its place and its purpose. Do I accept my place in the world today?

The simple sense of living is joy enough. Happiness starts with peace of mind.

Start by doing what’s necessary, then do what’s possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible. St Francis of Assisi.

Today I will practice mindfulness and give myself the opportunity to relax and think about my place in creation while I wait to do God’s will.
