This is a practice out of A Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Workbook, Foreword by Jon Kabat-Zinn, and co-authored by Bob Stahl Ph.D. and Elisha Goldstein, Ph.D. (New Harbinger, 2010). This short mindfulness practice is meant to be sprinkled throughout the day to support you in becoming more present, reducing stress, and being more effective in every day life.

As a side note, I just launched The Mindful Solutions at Work IPhone App. This is an interactive app that brings you through a program complete with email reminders of your progress and for motivation. Look up the youtube video called Mindful Solutions at Work for more info. Enjoy!

I do this too. I have one where I silently say to myself, "Stop. Don't let the mind get hijacked. Come back to the moment. Stay here." Then I picture a leaf floating down a stream and imagine that my thought is the leaf. I watch it drift away without judging it. It's funny because it does feel like waking up. Sometimes I picture little fish swimming by : )

I have a 10 Minute Body Scan to graduate to :) I don't think I can put the link here, but just search Elisha Goldstein Body Scan in YouTube and it should come right up. Enjoy!

Thank you. A wonderful tool. That auto pilot a good reference. It is a trap so it's helpful to be aware of it and break the cycle. You have a good, sincere face and calming voice. Look forward to the next.

@KristyC I'm kind of curious as to what it is you have against mindfulness. Did you cause you distress in the past? Do you believe that it doesn't work?
