Like a monkey our thoughts can jump from thought to thought. Meditation is a tool we can use to calm our monkey minds, coming back to a place of focus.
This mediation was inspired by a podcast I recently listened to featuring Mel Robbins, author of the book The High Five Habit. Thought I would share the link below.

Whether it is morning or at some point during your day, we can all use a little pick me up. In this episode Jessika will take you through an energizing meditation using imagery and a mantra.
In the meditation, Jessika will encourage you to repeat affirming words or phrases that can help manage negative thinking or emotions and build confidence in your self.
Do you feel like there is tension build up in your body? Than here is a meditation for you. Scan you body from head to toe, pausing regularly to give yourself a little TLC to alleviate tension.
Feeling a little off balance? Try this mediation and come back to your centre physically, and mentally. In this mediation we go through a body scan and practice alternate nostril breathing. This form of breath work is beneficial because it can help ease anxiety, increases focus and balances both hemispheres of the brain.
I recognize that hearing the instructions for alternate nostril breathing (especially if it is your first time) may be a little strange, so please take a look at this link if you need a visual representation of what we are going to practice.

Happy New Year everyone! Although we are already a few weeks into 2021, it is never to late to manifest your hearts desire for this year.
In today's episode of Breath In, Jessika will lead you through a breath awareness meditation using a breath count of 4-2-4.
