I’ve been very lucky to have supervision at work with Sue G. who also teaches / practices mindfulness. Together we have come up with some great ideas on how to be a little more mindful at work:
- Mindfulness Bell clock on the computer (download for free and create your own timing). This is a great little reminder to breathe and scan your body for tension
- Take your shoes off, feel the carpet with your feet, walk to printer feeling the floor beneath you
- 10 minute meditation at lunchtime
- Breathe in your tea / coffee and do a quick body scan
I’m amazed at how UNAWARE I can still be of my body / tension at work but at least these strategies are helping me tune in occasionally!! I’d love to know some other strategies…
