Welcome to the Anxiety Coaches

Coaches podcast, a relaxing and informative show where we explore anxiety, panic and PTSD sharing how you can overcome them for life.

Oh, Loh how welcome back to the Anxiety Coaches Podcast. In today's episode, I'm going to talk a little bit about being mindful and why being mindful may be a bit of a struggle for you.

Mindfulness is bigger than you think. We're so hard on ourselves sometimes we begin to think that we're not

practicing mindfulness because we have some challenging days or we think that our

mind is too busy I hear that one all the time if you have

moments or days where you feel that your mind is like a snow globe with whirling

glitter all over the place or that you're having difficulty

focusing or that you have a life that is just too full of to-do's and people to pick up places to go.

You're in the right place today because I want to show you that

mindfulness is bigger than you think.

Mindfulness is much bigger than that.

Mindfulness is much bigger than that. I ran across a great post by a woman

named Carla Nomburg and I will put a link to her work in the show notes.

She's a parenting coach and I just loved the way that she talked about this

and I wanted to share it with you. Again I will have her website in the show

notes if you would care to follow her. So let me share a bit of what she had to say, Carla the

parenting coach.

She was talking about mindfulness in this article and the first item that she had was that

you don't really understand perhaps what mindfulness is. She says mindfulness isn't

about being perfectly present and focused all the time. It's not about moving through life in a happy haze. Mindfulness is about

choosing to pay attention to the moment with kindness and curiosity. It's about noticing when your mind has wandered and bringing it back to what's right in front of you.
