MyYogaJoy Monday invites you to Mindfulness: I recently read an article on Mindful Writing in Mindful Magazine that talked about the benefits of writing by hand (as opposed to keyboard). A New York Times article noted that the brain fires in 3 different areas when writing by hand, fostering self-expression, creativity, and connection. Today’s Mindfulness practice is an invitation to sit quietly with pen and paper for ten minutes, beginning with “When I write by hand…” and see what tumbles out, no need for complete sentences or correct punctuation/spelling. Then see what comes through.🙌🏻
If you’re inclined, drop a note in the comments about how the experience unfolded for you😊

Yoga Off the Mat: what are you doing to take care of yourself this holiday season? This weekend I’m spending time with friends and family, getting outdoors for fresh air and movement, and politely saying “no”. We choose not to attend every holiday invitation, and we canceled our dinner reservation in favor of a quiet night at home, just listening to relaxing music and reading before heading to bed early. That’s all self-care. What are you doing to take care of yourself?🤔🕎🎄❄️
