Mindfulness Activities
Insight Timer is an app that has guided meditations anywhere from 1 min to 60 mins. This app also has music and stories to listen to as well. Guided breathwork allows you to physically calm anxiety and worry. Listen to a short guided meditation on mindfulness in the morning helps to set the tone for the day.
Podcasts
Podcasts on mindfulness and positive mindsets are a great tool for learning the new language for changing your mindset. You can listen to podcasts while driving to or from school.
Books on Mindfulness and Positive Affirmations
Reading books on mindfulness and positive affirmations is another great tool for learning the new language for changing your mindset. You can read as little as 1 page at night before going to bed. This double duty strategy will also help you unwind and fall asleep.
If you feel the need to "scroll" you can scroll through positive affirmations on Pinterest as opposed to scrolling through social media. When you are reading affirmations on Pinterest you are investing time and energy into yourself. When you are scrolling on social media you are investing time and energy into what other people are doing.
Mindful Movement
Mindful movement is a great tool for grounding yourself to the present moment and finding clarity in the situation. Mindful movement includes stretching, chair yoga, gentle yoga, and mindful walking.
