A deep thinker and a big enthusiast of technology.

Going to your job everyday can be a hassle but by being more mindful, it makes everything less overwhelming. Here are some tips that I personally use during daytime work.

Other curated ideas on this topic:

Use Mindful Reminders

Use Mindful Reminders

You can use interruptions as hooks to make you more mindful.

Every time your phone rings, take a mindful breath. Every time you hear the ping of a text message, pause to be mindful of your surroundings rather than immediately reacting by checking the message. 

Practice mindfulness

It can be quietly taking a few deep breaths or meditating for 20 to 30 minutes.

Refocus: 1 min every hour

Refocus: 1 min every hour

Manage your day hour by hour.
