1 minute of mindfulness Videos

Good morning ☀️🌈🌱 Today’s #1minuteofmindfulness is about travel. Travel is super special to me. It gives me many moments of awe and mindfulness. A break from routine. A refilling of my cup. A dip into culture and environment. It’s a pivotal practice in my self care. It allows me to discover the road less travelled, hike mountains, swim and walk beaches, watch sunrises and sunsets; tantalises all my senses with sounds of different languages, smells and tastes of food and surroundings. I love meeting people not like me. I love learning from others peoples point of view and perspective. Noticing the differences but loving the commonalities. Making connections. I love the awe and reminder of the beauty of our planet and our people. Travel is needed to remind me to never stop learning and discovering new things about this one precious planet. Thank you to travel for opening and transforming my eyes and my heart. Many mindful moments but this experience was 🤯❤️🙏 #bucketlist #sunrise #hotairballooning #Holidays #turkey2023 #turkey #cappadociahotairballoon #cappadociaturkey #Cappadocia #travellife #traveltheworld #travel 🎬 #cappadocia #turkiye

Good morning ☀️🌈🌱 A beautiful reminder🌷 “Life is amazing. And then it's awful. And then it's amazing again. And in between the amazing and awful it's ordinary and mundane and routine. Breathe in the amazing, hold on through the awful, and relax and exhale during the ordinary. That's just living heartbreaking, soul-healing, amazing, awful, ordinary life. And it's breathtakingly beautiful.” -L.R. Knost #1minuteofmindfulness #mindfulness #notallamazing #lifeisamazing #mundane #exhale #breathein #donkeys #LRKnost 🎬Not quite a minute but a beautiful reminder of the ‘amazing-ness’ of life ✨ #BalearicIslands #Spain

Good morning ☀️🌈🌱🎋 This mornings #1minuteofmindfulness is the growing story of bamboo🎍 A beautiful reminder for us to be patient, believe, persevere …our investment with reep rewards 🌈⭐️ Like any other crop or plant, Chinese Bamboo needs to be nurtured in order to grow; fertile soil, water, and sunlight are crucial for its survival. As the story goes, a Chinese farmer once planted a bamboo tree as he heard that it can create miracles, and he needed one to care for his struggling family. The farmer faithfully watered, fed, and cared for the soil, in which he planted the bamboo seeds, for an entire year but saw no sign of life. No growth, no sprouts, no hope. The second year was the same as were the third and fourth years. His patience and faith in this “miracle” bamboo plant started to fade. How could something he had so diligently cared for reap absolutely no reward? During the fifth year, just as he was about to give up on his dream of growing the plant, he noticed it started to sprout. The bamboo sprung up 60 feet over the next six weeks! #mindfulness #patience #believe #faith #perserverance #success #Bamboo #bamboomassage 🎬 walk with me down the bamboo path at #crystalgarden #shambhalagardens #mullumbimby #newsouthwales

Good morning ☀️🌈 🌱 Long time between posts as I’ve spent 1 month taking a well deserved break to travel with loved ones on many journeys. I feel much 🙏 to be able to work, save and then explore. Today’s #1minuteofmindfulness is about travel 🧳 🛥️ ✈️🚶‍♀️ Here’s a little quote left by staff in room: “We travel not to escape life, but for life not to escape us.” 💜 Not quite Monet’s garden in France 🇫🇷 but still beautiful 😍 Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens (RTBG) #mindfulnesspractice #mindfulness #travel #joy #garden #monetgarden #gypsy #wanderlust. #botanicalgardens #breakingmonotony #travellingaustralia 🎬 #royaltasmaniabotanicalgardens #tasmania

Good morning ☀️🌈🌱 Today’s #1minuteofmindfulness is about goal setting❤️🎯 Being in the here and now does not mean you don’t set goals for yourself. In fact, research has indicated that: “By habitually paying attention to their thoughts, feelings, sensations, and emotions, mindful individuals may develop a greater ability to recognize goals that are congruent with their authentic selves.” -https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jrp.2020.104015 When you practice mindfulness you are focused on self awareness and intrinsic motivation not external factors such as societal pressure. When you are self congruent you goals are focused on your own values and are more meaningful to you 🎯 Here are the fruits of my goal setting. Saving enough money (on a single income) to be able to take my family on a holiday. Being with my children, exploring nature, cycling, eating ❤️💜🌅🏝️ watch the video…❤️travelling Australia 🇦🇺 #mindfulness #goalsetting2023 #goals #Happiness #mentalhealth #motivation #psychology #wanderlust #gypsy #family #familytime #nature #iloveaustralia #australianbeaches #budget #budgetgoals #soloparenting #inmyownbackyard 🎬 #rottnestisland #westernaustralia

Good morning ☀️🌈🌱 This mornings #1minuteofmindfulness is about silence 🤫 “We sit silently and watch the world around us. This has taken a lifetime to learn. It seems only the old are able to sit next to one another and not say anything and still feel content. The young, brash and impatient, must always break the silence. It is a waste, for silence is pure. Silence is holy. It draws people together because only those who are comfortable with each other can sit without speaking...” -Nicholas Sparks - The Notebook, 1996. #mindfulness #australianbeaches #silence #1minuteofmindfulness #silenceispure #nocholassparks #thenotebook 🎥 #dunsborough #westernaustralia

Good morning ☀️🌈🌱 Today’s #1minuteofmindfulness is about taking the opportunity to notice. “I urge you to please notice when you are happy, and exclaim or murmur or think at some point, ‘If this isn't nice, I don't know what is.’’ -Kurt Vonnegut Here’s one of my noticing happy moments. I hope you find many yourself today 😘 #mindfulness #happyplace #noticing #kurtvonnegut #MindfulMonday 🎬 #moonta #porthughes #fleurieupeninsula #southaustralianbeaches

Good morning ☀️🌈🌱 Today’s #1minuteofmindfulness is about rumination. Rumination is a natural occurrence- our mind drifts and circulates (like the Ferris wheel) often focusing on negative context based in worry of the past or anxiety of the future. What mindfulness helps do is to stop, observe, breath and take a wise new action of coming into the ‘now’. The more we do the practice, the quicker we teach our brains to do something else/new. Focus on the here and now. Our only reality. "Today I escaped from anxiety. Or no, I discarded it, because it was within me, in my own perceptions - not outside." -MARCUS AURELIUS #mindfulness #hereandnow #rumination #ferriswheel #marcusaurelius 🎥 Ferris wheel @ #tumbalongboulevard #darlingharbour #sydney

Good morning ☀️🌈🌱 💫Life happens for us, not to us ✨ It is always difficult when things are not going the way we want them to in our life; when things occur that are out of our control. It’s often not until after that we realise that if those past experiences did not happen, we would not be where we are today. So whatever happens today, know that you are moving forward. So less “why me?” more “let it be” #mindfulness #letitbe #lifehappens #trust For today’s #1minuteofmindfulness enjoy the the traditional sound of the Balinese RINDIK 🎵 🎬 #sanur #bali #indonesia

Good morning ☀️🌈🌱 One thing I love about travel is all the new adventures and unexpected finds… travelling by ’gut’ or intuition. And the unexpected discoveries and beautiful finds 🌈🍯 Reminds me of the poem ‘The road less travelled’ Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same, And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.’ -Robert Frost #mindfulness #travel #wanderlust #roadlesstraveled #intuition #ThoughtfulThursday #robertfrost 🎬 #sanur #sanurbeach #bali #indonesia

Good morning ☀️🌈🌱 Remember our bodies are made of 60% water 💦 “Water does not resist. Water flows. When you plunge your hand into it, all you feel is a caress. Water is not a solid wall, it will not stop you. But water always goes where it wants to go, and nothing in the end can stand against it. Water is patient. Dripping water wears away a stone. Remember that, my child. Remember you are half water. If you can't go through an obstacle, go around it. Water does.” -Margaret Atwood - The Penelopiad #mindfulness #water #margaretatwood #waterislife 🎬 #threadsoflife #ubud #bali #indonesia

Good morning ☀️🌈🌱 Today’s #1minuteofmindfulness is about travel “We travel, initially, to lose ourselves; and we travel, next, to find ourselves. We travel to open our hearts and eyes and learn more about the world than our newspapers will accommodate. We travel to bring what little we can, in our ignorance and knowledge, to those parts of the globe whose riches are differently dispersed. And we travel, in essence, to become young fools again — to slow time down and get taken in, and fall in love once more…” -Pico Iyer #mindfulness #selfcare #travel #slowdown #taketimeforyou #savouring #picoiyer 🎬 5:30am @ #amedbali #bali #indonesia

Good morning ☀️🌈🌱 This morning’s #1minuteofmindfulness is about taking daily opportunities to laugh. I was at the latest exhibition at the National Gallery of Victoria, just resting on a couch when I looked up and saw this… whilst there was an alternative message for it. What it gave me is moments of laughter, childhood memories, memories of setting up for for parties and just a big smile on my face…. I hope you find unexpected moments of laughter today 😂🤣😆 #mindfulness #laughter #smile #soulfulSunday #balloons #blowingballoon #art 🎨 @Seung Yul HO #ngvmelbourne #melbourne #Victoria

Good morning ☀️🌈🦢 Today’s #1minuteofmindfulness is a beautiful quote from #FriedrichNietzsche “He who would learn to fly one day must first learn to stand and walk and run and climb and dance; one cannot fly into flying” One step at a time 🦶 Here’s a video of my encounter with swans from my walk yesterday, in a location that I have never seen them before. 🦢 are beautiful. Necks held proud. Elegant. Proud. Let’s bring a little bit of swan magic in our lives today. #mindfulness #onestep #learntowalkfirst #swan 🎥 #chiton #fleurieupeninsula #southaustralia

Good morning ☀️🌈⛺️ #1minuteofmindfulness is enjoying some eco therapy or aka forest bathing. The term emerged in Japan in the 1980s as a physiological and psychological exercise called shinrin-yoku. Forest bathing has been shown to significantly reduce blood pressure and stress levels, as well as have cardiac and pulmonary benefits. Take time out, slow down and connect with nature🚶‍♀️🥾🌲 Slowly and mindfully, take in your surroundings using all of your senses. How does the forest environment make you feel? Be observant, look at nature’s small details. Sounds. Smells. Tastes. Body movements. Bodily sensations. Noticing where your body is within the environment. ☮️ #mindfulnessmeditation #mindfulness #Ecotherapy #forestbathing #shinrinyoku #senses #nature #trees #birds #SoulfulSunday 🎬 #kuiptoforrest #fleurieupeninsula #southaustralia

Good morning ☀️🌈🌝 Today’s #1minuteofmindfulness is about being ok with difficult stages and experiences in our lives. It’s often through these periods - and yes, this insight may come much later- that we see our own sparks ⚡️ and strength 💪🏼. “Sometimes we have to sit in darkness to fully charge our light ” -Alyonna Angelica Enjoy the sound 👂of the waves crashing 🌊 from one of my fav midnight stroll mindfulness spots 🧘‍♀️ #mindfulness #beautyindarkness #ThroughTheDarkness #alyonnaangelica 🎬 #portelliot #fleurieupeninsula #southaustralia
