Mindfulness will help you to transform your garbage [sorrow, fear, depression, hate] into flowers.
Handle the present moment with all your attention and your flower will start to bloom.

🌺 Breathing in, I calm body and mind. Breathing out, I smile.
Dwelling in the present moment I know this is the only moment 🌺

~ Mindful mini meditations at work ~

When you arrive at work you can easily be swept away by it all and forget to be mindful of what you’re doing. Whatever your work involves, your attention is sure to be sucked up.

When you’re at work, give a mini meditation a go:

When?
You can do a mini meditation at set times or between activities. If you don’t like the rigidity of planning your mini meditations ahead of time, just practice them whenever the thought crosses your mind.

How?
Use any posture you like, as long as your spine is relaxed and upright. The simplest form of mini meditation is to feel your breathing.

Where?
You can do a mini meditation anywhere. Usually, meditating is easier with your eyes closed, but that’s not so easy at work! Try going for a slow walk for a few minutes.

Meditation is not an esoteric practice; it’s not something you do only in a meditation hall or Buddhist retreat center. It can happen right in whatever activity you’re doing — while walking, in the office. It means you are there, present with calm and peace.
With a breath, you can bring calm, clarity and rest your thinking.

By focusing on our breathe and accepting our emotions, we are able to calm our thinking and reduce our stress.

🌿Thich Nhat Hanh🌿
"You carry Mother Earth within you"

"She is not outside of you. Mother Earth is not just your environment.

"Fear, separation, hate and anger come from the wrong view that you and the earth are two separate entities, the Earth is only the environment. You are in the centre and you want to do something for the Earth in order for you to survive. That is a dualistic way of seeing.

"So to breathe in and be aware of your body and look deeply into it and realise you are the Earth and your consciousness is also the consciousness of the earth. Not to cut the tree not to pollute the water, that is not enough."

"Touching the ultimate dimension, we feel happy and comfortable, like the birds enjoying the blue sky, or the deer enjoying the green fields. We know that we do not have to look for the ultimate outside of ourselves – it is available within us, in this very moment."

"So the practice of mindfulness helps us to touch Mother Earth inside of the body and this practice can help heal people. So the healing of the people should go together with the healing of the Earth and this is the insight and it is possible for anyone to practice.

"This kind of enlightenment is very crucial to a collective awakening. In Buddhism we talk of meditation as an act of awakening, to be awake to the fact that the earth is in danger and living species are in danger."

"We have learned the lesson that when we perpetrate violence towards our own and other species, we are violent towards ourselves; and when we know how to protect all beings, we are protecting ourselves."

Nature is all around us in some way, shape, or form. Mindfulness is a perfect practice for spending time in nature, which has been proven to enhance feelings of wellness.

In nature, all of our senses are activated. We lay our eyes upon untouched beauty. We hear the beautiful sounds of silence and natural ambience. We smell fresh air, water, trees, and flowers. We can touch the many different textures of the natural world. We can taste how refreshing water is on a hike, how soothing a meal is at the end of the day, the sweat from playing outside. Throughout a day spent in nature, you can activate your senses by mindfully paying attention to each one and noticing what you experience in that time.

5 Ways Mindfulness Practice Positively Changes Your Brain.
"Highlights are increased neurogenesis (creation of new neurons) and gray matter (generation of new nerve cells in the brain) in the brain’s frontal cortex (the part of the brain associated with decision-making and logical thinking) and sensory cortices (the part of the brain associated with sensing, feeling, noticing), the hippocampal formation (the part of the brain associated with memory; Holzel et al., 2011), and a reversal of the brain’s natural tendency to thin (Treadway & Lazar, 2009), especially in the anterior cingulate (the part of the brain associated with attention), the insula (the part of the brain associated with gut-responding), as well as decreased activity and reduced gray matter in the amygdala (the part of the brain associated with fear)."
