Life Is Not Guaranteed

Thought for the Day: Today, right now, you have the opportunity to live life, so live. Tell your loved ones you care, help if you can and share what you have. We are not meant to dwell in the past. The past is an experience to learn from and let go of. Live in the present with love and gratitude because tomorrow is not guaranteed.

Calm Your Mind to Calm Your Body

Thought for the Day: Calm your mind to calm your body. Many of us live a life that causes us to feel anxiety. Sustained anxiety can cause serious health issues.

To help relieve anxiety, try this simple meditation technique:

Find something to focus your attention on, such as a spot on the wall or ceiling. Or, if you want to close your eyes, focus on one sound you hear, like an air conditioner or a fan. For a few minutes, focus all your attention on that spot or sound, letting go of all other thoughts in your mind.

After a few minutes of focused attention, follow up with your mind and body, check your gauges, as I like to say. How do you feel? Do you feel more calm?

Try this technique a few times a day when you feel anxious to calm your mind and body.

*Note: This is not meant to be medical advice. If you feel you may be suffering from a mental or physical health issue, please consult your doctor.
