Day 22: Mindful Eating

Mindful eating is about tuning into how you feel while you eat, paying attention to the experience with awareness and intention.Being more mindful with food can support better digestion, help you feel satisfied with less, and lead to healthier, more conscious choices. It can also free you from unhelpful eating habits and patterns.
In today’s challenge, Gabby shares simple, practical ways to bring more mindfulness to your meals, with an invitation to try a few and see what works best for you.

Day 21: Embracing Non-Striving

Non-striving is one of the core principles of mindfulness.It’s the conscious decision to let things be as they are, without immediately reacting or trying to change them.With the mindfulness attitude of non-striving, there is no goal other than to simply be yourself. It’s about trying less and being more.
Today’s challenge is an invitation to do just that: to sit and be with yourself for a few minutes, something we often avoid at all costs.
Host Gabby will gently guide you into and out of this meditation.

Day 19: Practicing Trust

A fundamental part of learning to meditate is learning to trust yourself; your instincts, your sensations, and your emotions.In mindfulness, we often say the body holds more wisdom than the mind. Practicing the mindful attitude of trust means tuning in and learning to listen to that wisdom.
This practice is about taking responsibility for being yourself, and learning to honour and trust your own experience, just as it is.

Day 17: A Beginner’s Mind For A Fresh Perspective

A Beginner’s Mind is a powerful aspect of mindfulness, it means approaching each moment as if you’re seeing it for the very first time.When we cultivate a beginner’s mind, we open ourselves to fresh perspectives and possibilities, rather than falling into automatic habits or old patterns of thinking.
This mindset helps us let go of assumptions and view people, situations, and experiences with curiosity and openness; creating space for change, growth, and greater awareness.

Day 16: Eye of the Hurricane Meditation

The Eye of the Hurricane meditation offers a powerful way to step back from the chaos of the world around you (the hurricane), and turn inward toward stillness and peace (the eye).
Using the metaphor of a hurricane, this practice guides you to connect with the calm, silent center within. Through your breath, you’ll learn to become like the eye of the storm: aware of the surrounding challenges, but no longer swept away by them.

Day 15: Restoring Confidence

Too many people struggle with low self-esteem and a lack of confidence, often driven by persistent negative thoughts. But meditation can be a powerful tool for building self-confidence.Confidence isn’t about being perfect, it’s about having a clear mind and a positive connection to your goals.
Mindfulness helps by increasing your self-awareness. It teaches you to notice your thoughts without judgment, and understand how they influence your emotions and behavior. In doing so, you can start to reduce insecurity, quiet self-doubt, and restore a sense of inner confidence.

Day 14: Body Scan

The body scan is one of the most effective ways to begin a mindfulness meditation. Its purpose is to help you tune in to your body, reconnect with your physical self, and observe any sensations you’re experiencing without judgment.
While many people find the body scan deeply relaxing, when practised with intention, it also strengthens your ability to focus and be fully present in your life.
