Mindfulness doesn’t mean we live without fear.  Instead, it gives us a set of tools and techniques we can apply when anxiety strikes and show ourselves compassion.

As I get older – and maybe post menopause – I find that I carry an underlying sense of anxiety when I am away.  At these times, I trust in the science of mindfulness and reassure myself that any time I spend focussing on my breath or body – or the sensations of walking slowly barefoot on the different coarse grass or sand at the beach – will calm my mind and keep those tigers at bay.

I hope that you find this list helpful too.  Please message me if you would like the scripts or guidance for any of these practices.  They’re great for kids too.
