Hey Inspiring Souls!
Lately connection and mindfulness has been on my mind, when I had a recent Ah-Ha moment about how I feel mindfulness= Connection for some this may be a well duh moment of course it does. For me though it was a ah ha moment.. I label this post part 1 as for me there is a lot to say about this subject.
I know that it sounds sort of simplistic that Mindfulness =Connection and I suppose it is a simple idea, but not easy in action. When we are mindful of what is going on in our lives and bodies, souls etc.. we are connected to those things to our life and soul on a different level. When we are mindful we can connect to the healing we need in our lives and so much more.
So many of us are on Auto Pilot we just go through the motions, feeling like we are in survival mode or just trying to get through the day. We are so busy and fill our life with stuff, activities etc that are not really in line with what fills us up, fills our time up but not our sense of purpose or our souls..
When I am mindful of the fact that I need certain things in my life (Creativity being one of them!) , or certain things drain me then I am connected to my life on a more authentic level.
I hope that I am getting across the point I am trying to make, sometimes we have in our heads or hearts what we mean but it’s hard to express in a way that makes sense, maybe it’s because I am still exploring this ah-ha..
If Mindfulness=Connection then it could be said that Mindlessness = Disconnect, we will explore that in part 2 and also ways to put mindfulness into action.
Here is to living Inspired, Creative and Empowered

Heather, how do you tell a single mother who gets up at 6am gets the kids ready for school, goes to work til 4pm, gets the children back feeds them, goes out to job no.2 until late about achieving connection and mindfulness in a way that would serve her practically?
In other words, how, in your opinion do you take this from a buzzword ideology to something more do-able?
