Mindful Meditation to Help Awaken Your Senses
How often do we begin our day with a warm cup of tea or coffee? Chances are, every day. It’s so embedded into our morning routine without a second thought that the process of preparing it is like muscle memory.
But what if we approached this ritual as if it were our very first time? Because it is, actually! We’ve never experienced this exact moment in the same way as we are now—and never will.
By tuning into all of our senses, we can practice mindfulness meditation through something we’ve already grown accustomed to doing regularly. So, pour yourself a cup and hit play on this meditation. Feel the warmth of the mug in your hands. Immerse yourself in the aroma of the grinds or tea leaves. Take it all in.
