Need a Mindful Moment? Open Up.

⏰ Reminder ⏰

Here are 3 moments in your day you can pause and be mindful:


🥣 Mindful Eating

Turn off distractions so you can focus only on eating—the taste, texture, and experience of it all.

🚶 Mindful Walking

Focus your senses on your body and everything around you—from the pavement beneath your feet to the breeze on your skin.

🧘‍♀️ Mindful Body Scan

Pause at your desk in the office or take a moment to rest on the couch, close your eyes, and scan your body from your toes to the top of your head.

None of these things need to take any time out of your day, and the rewards are worth it:

✔️ Less Stress

✔️ Calmer Mood

✔️ More Focus

✔️ Better Energy

Not a Fan of Resolutions? Try This!

✨ What if instead of a resolution, this year you set an intention? ✨

Because even though there is value in setting specific goals and resolutions, there is also value in zooming out to bring clarity on what matters to you most. 

That’s the power of intentions. 

🌸 Setting an intention is more about connecting with your sense of purpose. Intentions direct your mind to make choices that align with your values.

For example, you might set an intention to focus on authentic connection. Or an intention to focus on self-compassion. Then when presented with an opportunity, you can ask yourself whether it aligns with those intentions. 

Here are some questions to help you set your intentions:

🔹 What about your life brings you the most joy?

🔹 What do you want to cultivate more of in your life?

🔹 What words or phrases capture the essence of your answers above?

Once you set an intention, you can meditate on those words or set reminders in places you see every day (like a sticky note on your bedside stand). 

Then let it go and return to those words whenever you face new opportunities, challenges, or decisions.
