Currently, most of the population works under states of anxiety and stress that diminish their health and happiness. For this reason, we suggest you do a mindfulness exercise at work. Transfer mindfulness to the workplace and do each exercise that we propose.
It's no wonder that during the workday we feel stressed, loaded with pressure and multitasking
This professional pace is exhausting and does not allow us to enjoy what we do as we did when we started our first job
working in that position or trade
The best companies in the world such as Apple or Google give workshops on mindfulness to their employees
because they recognize how it positively affects their performance
Sometimes it is preferable to do fewer tasks well done than too many anyway
That's why it's very important to be present and paying attention also when we are at work
I'm going to give you a few tips to make your working day more pleasant
and be more aware of how much you work
The first one is that when you get to your work place you take 5 minutes to visualize the day, to organize yourself so you don't feel overwhelmed and against the clock
Perform a series of 5 deep breaths
After the deep breaths, recreate in your mind an overview of everything you have to do for the day, once you have located all your work for the day get on with it
Take advantage of your lunch or break time to have a snack or a drink with mindfulness
Remember to chew, swallow, interact with your food in a mindful way
The perfect moment to disconnect and enjoy the sensations, flavors, textures, texture and temperature, you know how to put into practice everything you have been working on during this Mindfulness course
Concentrate only on one task and if a new one arrives, prioritize, paying attention only to one task
of them, the most important one
Put all your attention on what you are doing and avoid distractions, forget the social networks, WhatsApp messages from groups of friends, notifications and so on
There will be time to connect virtually outside at work
I also recommend you to set an alarm for small brakes or breaks, for example every hour, change your posture, stretch and take 5 deep breaths
And of course, once you get out of work leave everything that has happened after closing the office door
Don't take the mental noise of work to other areas of your life, visualize a great PAUSE
in your head and totally change the chip
Now it's time to rest, unwind, relax and any issues that come up can wait
You need to recover from the day's work so that the next day you can go full of positive energy with very good attitude
And now let's go with the little meditation that will help you to position yourself in the present
Sit with your back straight, your feet on the floor, aligned and without forcing
Close your eyes and start breathing with me
Gently take the air through your nose and let it out little by little, without haste, harmoniously
relax your whole body, feel it free, light, without tension in any of your muscles
When you breathe, visualize yourself as a flower opening, slowly receiving the sunlight
and collects its energy
When you expel the air through your nose visualize yourself like a flower that closes, little by little your petals embrace each other and you feel comforted
Accompany this breath imagining how you are a flower that slowly opens and closes its petals
moving now your chest
When you inhale open your chest and bring your shoulders back
When you exhale curve your back bringing your shoulders forward, closing yourself like that flower you visualize
Breathe at your own pace letting your petals gently open and close
Mobilize your spine and back muscles by arching forward and backward
You can help yourself by putting your arms in a cross, bending your elbows at a 90-degree angle with your elbows
hands upward
When you exhale bring your hands in front of your head touching palm to palm
When you inhale open your chest and let your arms be open on both sides of your head
You are filling yourself with energy as you gently open and close like a flower, in a delicate way
Pay attention to how this movement makes you feel
Relax and concentrate on accompanying this dance with your breathing
Slowly bring your hands back to your knees and steady your back
Slowly open your eyes
What do you think about this exercise? You can do it in the morning or before going to work to recharge your vital energy, feel more relaxed and free of tensions
Don't forget to stay present in your next journey, breathe and be aware of each task you carry out
to accomplish
See you soon, happy present moment
