Proud
Because our brain is hardwired to tone in on survival instincts, it notices danger around every corner. Because of this, we are more prone to seeing the negative. In this way, our brain easily zooms in to our shortcomings. This in turn creates anxiety and a feeling of not being good enough.
With mindfulness, we begin to be aware and with awareness comes choices. So we can flip the script. The next time our brain goes to the “what went wrong” narrative, immediately ask the question, what are you proud of today? I love this question because of how I feel after I ask it to myself. My heart is open, I sense a small smile on my face and my body is relaxed. I’m actually excited for life and all of its infinite possibilities. Try it for yourself! Namaste 🙏🏻❤️☮️
