Day 74 - Practical Positivity
I found an article I am going to share piece by piece for this week of Practical Positivity. It's from Huffpost written by Gina Soleil. Enjoy!!!
Here's how to meditate at work...Day 3
Remain Grounded
Most people are living everywhere but the present. It's as though our heads are floating in the sky. Even though our bodies are in the present our minds are constantly in the past and future. Most people are checked out 85 percent of the time, going through the motions barley able to remember conversations. Being grounded means your feet are firmly planted in the here and now. You're rooted firmly on Earth, present and mindful of your surroundings. When you're grounded, you can actively engage in a conversation rather than looking right through the person in front of you. When you're grounded you feel confident, strong and acutely aware of what's going on around you -- characteristics of someone who's outrageously productive and calm.
Here's how you ground through meditation in two minutes a day... Every morning and afternoon close your eyes for one minute. Imagine a stream of light running through your body connecting you to the core of the Earth and the highest point in the sky. This light is like a tightrope that keeps your feet firmly planted on the ground, while your body stands up solid and strong. Then imagine you are contained in a golden light that keeps you present and safe in the here and now. As you see yourself in this light, take a deep breath and walk forward into your day.
Day 4 will be shared tomorrow morning!!
Have a beautiful day!
