So this everyday mindfulness technique may feel a little strange to do in front of other people because you're actually going to tap and label body parts.
So you're going to go shoulder,
Wrist,
Forehead,
Nose,
Lower back,
Leg.
And you're just going to tap the body,
Wake it up a little bit,
Connect with it in a different way and just label the body parts so that we're connecting the physical sensation to a mindful activity.
You can do this chronologically through a body scan starting at your feet,
Working up,
Or you can just pick places at random which feel good to you at that moment in time.
But that is the art of this everyday mindfulness technique.
Just pick somewhere to tap,
Tap it a few times and label it.
Hand.
When you feel called to move on,
Move on.
Find somewhere else.
Jaw.
It's as simple as that.
And like all of these everyday mindfulness techniques,
They're never that simple because our minds can be going at a million miles an hour.
So if you get distracted,
That's absolutely fine.
Come back to the sensation of the tapping and go hand again.
And you're doing a great job.
You're building that mental muscle and you're improving your life and connecting to here in the present.
What's better than that?
