Hello and welcome to the Mindful in Minutes Podcast, a guided meditation podcast brought

to you by Yoga for you.

I'm Kelly and today I'll be leading you through your meditation, so go ahead and get comfortable,

settle in and enjoy your meditation practice.

Hello everyone. Welcome to this episode of the Mindful in Minutes Podcast. I'm Kelly and today we

are doing a Mindful doing meditation. So this is the companion practice to the practicing mindfulness

daily, free form episode that is the episode right before this one in your podcast feed and it is

guidance on basically doing something mindfully. So I recommend listening to that episode for some

more context if you're curious about mindfulness, what it is, how to practice it. But for this practice,

what you'll want to do is pick something to do during this meditation, like folding laundry,

going for a walk, doing your dishes, gardening, anything. So pick that thing, pause me for a moment

if you need to. And then let's dive right in. We'll begin just by setting an intention for this

task, this thing we're doing. So before we even begin, you could say something like, for the next

few minutes, I will stay present with this task and complete it with joy or something like that.

Just pick your activity and set your intention right now.

And now take a few deep breaths.

And think about how many times in your life have you done this activity before?

How many times a day, a week, a month? Do you do this activity?

Does it hold any significance or importance in your life? What does it usually like?

And then coming back to your intention of what you would like it to be this time.

And now begin your task. You don't necessarily have to do it slower than you normally would,

maybe you do, but you don't have to. But just move and do with intention and curiosity.
