My post the other day was about mindfulness<\/a>, and today we are going to talk about some different mindfulness techniques and how to pick the best ones for you. This is going to cover many different activities and what works for you is going to be dependent on many different factors that I will try to cover. Mindfulness practices are usually pretty cost effective, as it does not require a lot of extra materials.<\/p>\n

Journaling<\/h4>\n

I have talked about journaling before. You know my personl thoughts on it, I am not good at it. In fact, if there was an award for “world’s worst journaler,” I would get it. It’s hard for me to do consistently, and consistency is key. However, it is a pretty good way to track your thoughts and feelings, and can be adapted. You can make audio recordings, or record a video or type if physically writing a journal is too difficult for you to do consistently.<\/p>\n

Guided Meditations for Seniors<\/h4>\n

Guided meditations are great, and guided sleep meditations can be very helpful for people who have trouble falling asleep. I do some affirmations before I go to sleep as a type of meditation. It helps me a lot when I have trouble sleeping. There are lots of free apps for guided meditations as well.<\/p>\n

Planning Your Day or Week Out<\/h4>\n

An underrated mindfulness practice is sitting down once a week and planning out what you are going to be doing. You can use a paper planner or an electronic calendar, and this can be a great way to set the pace for the week and get everyone on the same page. This is particularly important if you or someone in your house is going to multiple appointments a week or if you’re trying to coordinate homecare.<\/p>\n
