Hai Girls!
Hope you’re all
doing great and once again, thank you so much for sticking with me through
thick and thin. I’ve started to feel like myself again with my blog and online
presence back. I couldn’t live that long without my Instagram, Twitter,
Facebook, or blog! :)
My latest Instagram update with my friends! @frufru.shru |
On hindsight, I
can’t help but feel a little silly for letting the haters and their mean
comments get me down. I know that if I hadn’t made the conscious decision to
stay away from social media for a few weeks, I would have spent hours and hours
replying and dwelling on EVERY SINGLE mean comment written about me – I would
have gone mad!
That got me
thinking about how there will always be little things in life that get us down,
annoy us or drive us crazy. As someone who’s independent and likes fighting her
own battles, it’s difficult for me to let things go sometimes. But I know that
if I don’t, it can create a lot of negativity in me and that’s very unhealthy. We
can’t always control what happens to us, but we can always control how we react.
So if some
idiotic friend wants to shake up your canned drink so that it fizzes up and
sprays all over you, you can choose to either, a) knock him on his stupid head,
or b) smile and let it go.
Whenever I feel wound
up, I try something that effectively clears my head and helps me to refocus my
thoughts and find an inner peace – meditation!
By doing a
simple meditation just ten minutes every day, I am able to get my thoughts in
order and be much clearer on what I’m feeling too. It works for me and it could
work for you too! So this week I want to
challenge YOU to meditate for 10 minutes, for 10 days. It’s gonna change your
life!
Here are my tips
on meditation for beginners:
1.
Decide on a quiet and cool
location in your home. Practice meditating in this same location each day.
2.
Sit or lie down with your eyes
open or closed. The key is to be comfortable.
Any posture that is comfortable for you will do! |
3.
Start your time and take 10-20
deep breaths, inhaling and exhaling slowly.
4.
Return back to breathing
normally. If you find your mind wandering off to different thoughts, gently
bring your attention back to your breathing.
5.
Focus on the sensations you’re
feeling from the tip of your head slowly down to your toes.
6.
Once the 10 minutes are up,
recap on how your body and mind is feeling and repeat this sequence the
following day.
That’s it for
this week girls! Until next time, mwah!
Xoxo Fru Fru
