Alone time
I need to be able to do my meditation without my kids around or even the 3 minutes are constantly being interrupted.

Distracted
I was distracted so I couldn’t really focus. I’ll be doing this one over again some time today.

Reunions
Tomorrow I get to see my daughter. It is both exciting & nerve wracking. The nerves brought me here tonight. I needed the reminder that my nerves r not my reality. I will need this reminder again tomorrow probably multiple times. I don't want to screw tomorrow up. I'm nervous my emotions will overwhelm me. If I am overwhelmed I can only imagine what my daughter is feeling.

My thoughts are not my reality... at 1st I️ disclaimed it
Then I️ realized that my thoughts are NOT my reality, like the mantra repeated. They are imaginings of what I️ think, fear, or hope things to be. So as they are only thoughts, they can be self harming at times by restricting such harsh limits on myself or over pushing myself beyond a reasonable expectation that someone else would never do... thoughts are not reality, not my reality, let them go... hold onto positive self talk..

This was very relaxing. I feel the tingling as I was breathing. My mind was listening very carefully to the words that were being said Release your Worries I chose to sit and relax and listen and concentrate on my breathing. I was frozen in time without any interruption. The feeling was very peaceful pleasant amazing. It's like I got a recharge energy boost. I can totally handle more days and times like this.

Releasing worries
By focusing on my breathing and just being in the here and now I was able to get off the worry train for a few minutes.

Day 2
I need to let go of the worries that I do not have control over, both past and present. I need to focus on the here and now... and accept that it will be ok!!

Mindful soul
I felt better and just because I feel bad doesn’t make me a bad person but something that I’m aware of that emotional pain without being personally attached to those things that I thought that I didn’t really have any control over but being able to recognize that I cannot give into them for I didn’t really give them my permission to rule my life

What is reality
My body here and now is the reality, not the what ifs, could bes, maybes. How to practice this full time is the question.

Several sessions
Tried several sessions here at Aura tonight, trying to calm my nerves from current situations stressing me out. Nothing seems to have taken hold for me however. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It helped me to...
...release worrying thoughts. I was/am worrying about everybody in my family and there's really nothing I can do right now because I'm busy and exhausted myself. I just can't fix it for them. I can barely do my own stuff at the moment. So I think I'm gonna do some deep breathing and take a nap this afternoon. I woke up at 4:30 this morning and could not go back to sleep.

Releasing worry
I learned that listening to this mediation will help me not to worry about anything like I worried all the time about everything this past week when I got a call to the school my son goes to about his medical information which I gave to his teacher about his inhaler to have in school. They gave me another to give to his doctor to fill out and return to school by the school nurse. I’m still new to things at school trying to get used to the new surroundings.

One moment at a time
And in that moment, there is only now, to accept and make the most of. Namaste

now is now
I remembered in this moment that the worries and anxious sensations in my body are driven but thoughts not based on reality. reality is true in the now. Where my body and mind truly exist.

Sitting in our own reality
I find this sentence to be really effective : « I sit in my own reality, here... » It helps to dissociate worries from what is real and what is really happening right now. Thank you very much for this practice! 🙏🏻🙂

Optimistic
I started this session out super stressed because school started back up, I’m in my final semester of college, and it’s all going to be online and through virtual classes. I was fine when everything switched last semester and was able to finish stronger than I expected, but now it’s been really setting in—the next 3 months staring at a computer screen for hours on end. It’s going to be okay though. Everyone is in the same stressful boat, whether it be working at home, unemployed, sick, or going crazy with all the kids home, we’re going to make it through! All these adjustments are going to teach us something. We’re going to learn more about ourselves, and we’re going to grow! That’s exciting!!! Although we have many challenges right at our feel at present, there’s nothing we won’t be given that we cannot do. I’m very religious, and I wholeheartedly and thoroughly know that I and can do all things through Christ. Hou can too! Whatever you believe in, know that there is so much good that is coming from this trial right now. Death is not the end. It isn’t! Our lives on earth are but a small fraction of our existence. We are here to learn, and to have joy. Everything is going to work out. Chin up! Smile at yourself. Laugh! You are alive! What a blessing it is to live. You can do this day! You can do it! You’ve got this! Kick those doubts in the butt and get to work. Everything happens for a reason, even if we don’t know what that reason will be right now. Have a blessed day. And #ShareGoodness! 🌱🌱🌱🌎🔜🌳🌳🌳💪💪😊😃🤗
