Ever felt trapped by the whirlwind of anxious thoughts? Imagine being able to step back, observe them, and let them pass without judgment. On this episode of Mindfulness Monday with your host, Carly Jean Puch, we explore the transformative potential of mindfulness practices inspired by Cheri Huber's "Making a Change for Good." We delve into the art of naming anxious thoughts, creating a crucial distance between you and the chaos they may cause. This episode guides you through a simple yet profound practice to become the observer of your thoughts, empowering you to acknowledge anxiety without the burden of harsh self-judgment.
Anxiety is a natural part of our lives, and resisting it only amplifies its power. Instead, let's embrace it through mindful acceptance. By engaging mindfully with your surroundings and maintaining a perspective of acceptance, we can demystify the grip of anxiety. Join me as we learn to accept and observe without shame, fostering a healthier emotional outlook. This episode is more than just a guide; it's an invitation to revisit these practices whenever anxiety looms.
