We all want the quickest and most effective tools to help us improve our health in any way possible.

These past couple of months I have been on a personal journey of discovering the many different ways that mindfulness can improve my overall health.

I’m talking seeing a significant improvement mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Both on the outside and on the inside.

For those of you who do not know, mindfulness is the practice of being aware. You learn how to be aware and accepting of all your emotions in a non-judgmental way. It does not matter the situation or moment at hand, you simply acknowledge your thoughts and emotions as they arise, accept them for what they are, and effectively process them.

Mindfulness by no means is an easy technique to practice! In order to be mindful, it takes a great amount of patience and dedication to the craft. Luckily there are many different ways that you can practice mindfulness and for many different reasons. Some practice mindfulness for their mental health, as a manifestation technique, and even as a meditation technique.

I’ve been practicing mindfulness as an effective tool to improve my overall health. Curious to learn what mindfulness techniques I’ve picked up along the way and how they can help improve your health?

As women we all strive to be in the best shape we possibly can be. This is because we have so many different roles that we tend to take on. We’re mothers, sisters, aunts, God-mothers, workers/breadwinners, business women, and so much more. Taking on so many different roles, sometimes all at once, means that we hold ourselves to a lot of responsibilities throughout the day.

While we may make it look easy, the reality is that it’s not always easy. We have mastered juggling a ton of roles and responsibilities in various situations and on various occasions. While this is great and amazing and I believe showcases the true strength of women, it does tend to have one downfall to it.

We are always so focused on making sure that everyone we love and care about are well taken care of that we tend to forget about ourselves. We put our health, our happiness, our wants, and our needs on hold because it fulfills us so much more to care for others first.

This is one area that most of us as women are still struggling to master.

I believe this is because we tend to fail to acknowledge just how much energy, time, and commitment is required in order to not only care for multiple individuals, but ourselves as well. This causes us to prioritize the health, happiness, and sanity of others over ourselves, and by time we finally get around to checking in with us, we’ve already crashed into a wall mentally, emotionally, and physically.

So how do we avoid this? How do we still allow ourselves to be everything that our loved ones need us to be, while also showing up for ourselves just as equally? Truth be told it’s a lot harder than it may seem but there is a secret formula to doing it all.
