Hi everyone! So I am once again wrapped up in an MSF Workshop... and loving every second. I did want to use this momentum to discuss a couple of basic, and amazing, benefits we get from practicing Mindfulness regularly.
It decreases stress and anxiety - even if you just take 10 Mindful breaths, you will see immediate results.1
It decreases depressive symptoms while increasing self-compassion when compared with yoga alone. 2
Beyond the mental health benefits we get from Mindfulness, it can also improve your overall health. It can lower blood pressure, increase cardiovascular health and MORE. 3, 4
How incredible? And all it takes is as little as getting in touch with your breath!
Before we get into the breakdown... I want to give you a heads-up.
This is the last major conditioning week we have before the 2 week prep, where we really begin to taper down. Ok? You've got this!!!
