How will you be on autopilot today? Consider your daily routines and habits where you become mindless and make them mindful.

Try these:

1. When commuting or running errands today take note of the sunrise or the sunset. The fall beauty is particularly stunning with it’s colorful sky. Breathe it in as you observe it.
2. That wonderful cup of morning joe…smell the aroma, hear the trickling sound as it pours into your mug and savor the first warm, rich sip onto your tongue.
3. When you first wake up, appreciate the silence of the morning. Be still and listen for the more subtle sounds as you rise. The chime of a clock in the living room, the hum of distance traffic or faint chipping of birds. Tuning in and noting what you hear is an easy way to become present.
4. As you slip into your sheets for bed tonight, take several minutes to acknowledge the softness of your pillow, the warmth of your blankets and the restful support from your mattress. Delight in the relaxing sensations before drifting to sleep.
5. Throughout your day seek out more moments where you can be present and find mindfulness.
