We have baby Roman today!
Not a normal watch day but there is an issue. Roman is usually watched by paternal grandmother today.
I eant to reiterate, it takes a huge support village for young women &babies. She works her butt off at eldercare place and no assistance from dad.
Past 3 days he's been stalking her. Physically, not just online. Circling around her parking lot and a ton of escalating threats in text.
She reported to police yesterday. There is already a PPO

The twitter blue "pay the 8" debacle is hilarious.
I would not pay because the platform would never appreciate my mindfulness. Too many shitty ppl put there...I'd be trolled as woke π and I longer wallow on those low frequency emotions.
The more you spend in the higher frequency emotions the happier you will be and minfulness tools can get you there too.
Lol I'm not just woke, I'm AWAKE

Paying attention to sounds & sensations is powerful to stop thoughts -
After a minute or two, try to sense/feel your body -- it becomes more fuzzy like a cloud of light pressure.
Why are mindful tools so useful? Because it changes you good ways. Helps anxiety, depression & other struggles.
It flip me from being semi agnostic to very spiritual (tl;dr)
Spirituality (not strict religion) BUT ppl like Jesus, Budda, Mohammed fit into my model. β€οΈ
Even doing this a minute or two makes a difference. Provides calm moments in the midst of the storm of our thoughts. #mindfulness

It's just capitalism. And God forbid a family shares money from a family business.

GETTING STARTED
Make a point to get outside in nature or nice comfortable place. Take an extra minute to closely examine a flower or your dog/cat or children enjoying themselves. Watch closely how they interact or the flower's beauty. Let everything fall away (every other thought)
Paying a little extra attention to those "little happy things" gives us much needed breaks amidst the storm.
I'm astonished how beneficial mindfulness is π

Morning! π§ββοΈππβοΈπ
This practice greatly improves happiness and inner peace.
If you are going through an external struggle that can't be transformed away. Mindful moments can provide moments of calm/peace in the midst of the storm. This is how I started. Now I use mindfulness to deeply analyze & find solutions.
Example: for 3 years we have been working with my son's alc use disorder. it wasn't until we started mindfully examining each slip-up and progress that we started having real progress π
Morning! After a few distractions in the news cycle, below is an incredibly important awareness; knowing when to stop.
