Mental Wellness: Embrace Mindfulness
Incorporating mindfulness into everyday tasks can help to boost your mental wellness.
But, what exactly is mindfulness? According to the Mindful website, it’s “the basic human ability to be fully present, aware of where we are and what we’re doing, and not overly reactive or overwhelmed by what’s going on around us”.
To practise mindfulness in a fun and interesting way, try setting aside a few minutes each day for a “mindful moment”. Focus on your senses and surroundings, or even engage in mindful movement like yoga or dance.
Other examples of mindful exercises include:
Savouring a piece of rich, dark chocolate;
Fully immersing yourself in the present moment;
Deep breathing exercises to anchor awareness.
If you’d like to give it a go, and are seeking serene spaces to cultivate this practice, look no further than our Stonehouse Court Hotel.
Our surroundings offer a tranquil haven where you can immerse yourself in mindful exercises — whether that be exploring our gardens, or finding solace in a quiet corner of our hotel.
