I often get questions about what should be included in a daily practice so I wanted to give you a sneak peak into my new and improved daily (mindset) practice. I’ve decided it’s time to shake things up again and thought you might be interested in what I do, but more importantly why.
Before I dive into my current practice, I want to remind you that I am a fan of simplicity and finding what works for you. What I am doing may not work for you, so be sure to experiment a bit and find something that feels good for YOU. As you will see below I’ve added a few key pieces to my practice and so far it’s making a huge difference in how I feel.
~Mind~
You hear me talk a lot about my mindset practice because well, mindset is everything when it comes to anything and I truly believe everyone needs a practice to keep them on track.
Currently my mindset practice consists of:
• 10 Minutes of reading a personal development book
• 10 Minutes of meditation
• 10-15 Minutes of journaling
• Reflecting on/writing down my goals
WHY?
The reading portion of my practice is simply to continue to learn new tools, strategies, and concepts that will help me grow and evolve. Meditation helps me ground my energy and get into that high vibe place before I start my day.
My journaling practice is the time I spend actively planting new beliefs that match my goals and intentions for my life. Sometimes I double the time or add a session at night. It really just depends on what I’m working on at the time. The goal writing/reflection is a new thing I’m adding as a way for me to keep myself focused on what my intentions are for the moment. (Truth be told, I’m still getting used to doing this consistently. )
~Body~
I’ve talked about this on and off for the last several months, but I’ve recently gotten back into taking better care of my body. In the past I’ve not been the greatest at self-care, but I have really been making a conscious effort to change that and I already feel so much better.
What I’m doing:
• Drinking 16 oz fresh celery juice (almost) every morning
• Working out 20-30 minutes a day 6 days a week
• Listening to what my body needs (ex. sleeping, eating, water etc.)
WHY?
The celery juice thing is relatively new for me as I’ve only been doing this for a month or so. I got started because I’d been following the Medical Medium on Instagram for awhile and something inside me kept tugging at me to try the celery juice practice. If you’re interested in learning more about what it can do and why people are doing it, check out the Medical Medium for sure.
Working out 20-30 minutes a day has been a game-changer for me and it has nothing to do with weight or how I look (although that transformation has been great). I find that moving my body 20-30 minutes a day doubles as a body exercise and a mind exercise. It’s a stress reliever, vibe lifter and it just pushes me to do things I didn’t think I could do. I highly recommend it.
~Space~
This is a relatively new focus for me and again, it’s a work in progress. Toward the end of last year I had this urge to declutter my entire house, but with it being around the holidays I just didn’t have the time to do as much as I wanted. So, I decided to create a monthly decluttering challenge for myself.
What I’m doing:
• Each month I set a goal for the number of items I want to purge
• I am also looking at the specific Feng Shui areas within my home and office space to see how the energy within my home relates to those areas
WHY?
Clutter clogs energy and I’m all about opening up the energy within my home so good things to flow. I’m also learning a lot more about Feng Shui and a ton of great tips from my go-to expert and friend Esmeralda from Simply Refreshing: Feng Shui for Holistic Living who just so happens to be offering an amazing Home & Life Transformation Bootcamp in February that I know is going to be amazing!! Definitely check it out!
So, there you have it! A sneak peak into what I’m doing and why. My hope is that it inspires you to create your own practice to help keep you focused, on track, and feeling great energetically because it’s ALL about the energy!
