It's time for the weekend! How are you spending it?

Do you ever feel overwhelmed by the daily grind? 😨 Mindfulness could be your game-changer in reducing stress and boosting your overall wellbeing. 🤷♂️ How do you do it? 🤷♂️ It's all about finding what works for you and making it a habit, but start small! Set aside a few minutes daily to focus on your breath, count up to ten and back down, or practice gratitude by listing three things you're grateful for each day. As you become more comfortable, gradually increase the time and add in other activities such as yoga or journaling. The key is to be present and let go of any distractions or negative thoughts. If they do come, acknowledge the thought or distraction without judgment, and then let it go. With consistent practice, you'll feel more calm, centered, and content in your daily life. And remember, self-care isn't selfish. It's essential for maintaining your mental and emotional well-being. So invest in yourself and see the positive impact it can have on your overall happiness and quality of life. If you'd like to take your well-being practice to the next level, listen to the Blink to "The Power of Now" by Eckhart Tolle, which teaches mindfulness and being present in the moment: https://lnkd.in/eGiuear7

There are multiple views of the brain. Some see the brain as always reinventing itself: changing, evolving, growing, and developing. Others see the brain as a machine that is pre-programmed to make specific decisions, no matter what comes up. 🧠 The former view of neuroscience teaches us that no matter how old we are, there is always the potential for more change, the potential for improvement, the potential for growth, and deeper connection. “I think this is an optimistic view of neuroscience. Yes, we get older and indeed, as we get older, our brains become a little less flexible, a little less plastic, but not entirely at any stage of life. There is always the potential for change, the potential for improvement, the potential for growth and the connection.” Anil Seth, British neuroscientist and professor of Cognitive and Computational Neuroscience at the University of Sussex explains. In his Blinkist Guide, The Neuroscience of Self, Anil Seth takes you deeper into the mystery of the brain and consciousness. This Guide is sure to make you feel more connected with yourself and other living beings. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/ek-A2Thx
