It's "Mindful" Monday . . .


Did you know there are 5 senses we need for "mindfulness"???


And they would be . . . sight, sound, touch, taste and smell . . .


And a simple exercise to sharpen our senses for "mindfulness" is this . . .


In this moment in time . . . right now . . . stop what you're doing . . . "listen" to what you hear . . . what you "see" around you . . . and what you "smell" . . .


Now . . . "touch" something close to you . . . and if nothing is there . . . touch your clothes or your skin . . . what do you feel?


And what about "taste"???


If you're not eating something at this moment in time . . . "taste" the air . . . take a deep breath through the mouth . . . what do you taste . . . or lick your skin . . . and taste "YOU"!


You are now one with "YOU" and your surroundings.


So today . . . my "mindful" moment is about one of the 5 senses . . . "mindful SIGHT".


You see . . . our "eyes" see many things during the day . . . some that we remember . . . but "most" that we don't.


We're normally so busy or "distracted" . . . that we don't "really" SEE the beauty of our surroundings . . . or our "life".


We just "see" objects.
