Minding My Mornings

Meditate Your Weight: A 21-Day Retreat to Optimize Your Metabolism and Feel Great - Tiffany Cruikshank LAc  MAOM

Here's a book suggestion if you are looking for a kickstart to the new year.

 

I chose this book because I was looking for a way to get back to a practice that incorporated mindfulness into my day, while also getting me journaling and physically healthier. These daily exercises over 21 days include a meditation that starts at 3 minutes on the first three days and builds to 12 minutes; journal writing exercise led by questions, and a daily mantra.

I like the slow build up of meditation time that makes it easy to include in my morning ritual and (hopefully) will re-create the meditation and journaling habits that I have let fall to the wayside.

Cruikshank's tone and writing style are gentle and easy which makes the book an easy welcome to the day.

It's only day one, but I'm motivated and optimistic.  That's already a plus in my books!
