“Mindful March”

„Achtsamkeit bedutet, dass wir uns in jedem moment ganz darauf einlassen. Präsent zu sein“ – Jon Kabat-Zinn

“Mindfulness means that we commit fully in each moment to be present – Jon Kabat-Zinn

I meant to share this post last week, only I got caught up with other tasks. This calendar is a timely reminder for me to be present in the moment.

March’s  daily actions from ‘Action for Happiness Org’s’ calendars are based on the key of Awareness: Live life mindfully. The daily actions have been selected to help make yourself and others happier.

Related Work Actions include:

Action 7: Bring mindfulness into your day

Action 18: Be curious & get inspired

Action 39: Get outside & enjoy the natural world

Action 41: Take care of the world around you

Perhaps this coming month with work, you might;

• Notice how you speak to yourself. Try to use kind words
• Take three calm breaths at regular intervals during your day
• Take a full breath in & out before you reply to others
• Stay fully present while drinking your cup of tea or coffee
• Listen deeply to someone & really hear what they are saying
• Find ways to enjoy any chores or tasks that need doing
• If you find yourself rushing, make an effort to slow down
• Walk a different route today & see what you notice
• Notice when you are tired & take a break as soon as possible
• Appreciate nature around you, wherever you are
• Notice what is working today and be thankful that this is so

Where ever you are around the globe, I hope that the actions from this month’s calendar, will help support yours and others career management plans, selfcare and wellbeing throughout the coming month and beyond.
