I've found mindfulness really helpful - I combine 3 things:
- Gratefulness (each day we sit down at dinner and share 3 things we are grateful for from that day, or that went well for us)
- I do mindfulness meditation and positive mantras daily....it's so easy when you're on the BC journey to feel overwhelmed and to get too far ahead of yourself. Mindfulness helps me cope and tap into the energy of my body.
- Empathy - trying to say or do something kind for someone else. Makes you feel good.
The research indicates that you can even rewire your brain if you follow these sorts of practices for 21 days in a row...with even more impact after 42 days.
I'm finding it really useful :).
