Hey! This is a weekly check in to see how your day is.

So how was your day?

Normally I go first to say a bit about my day but I’m having a bad time with bdd lately so I don’t feel like it sorry.

    Thank you for saying that, I am feeling a bit better now ☺️.

    Ooh that sounds good I think I might try listening to them.

    Wow I find it so hard to mediate but I love mindfulness. It’s been too hot lately but sitting outside staring into space feels super nice.

    How long did you meditate for?

      You’re welcome, it’s good to hear that your mood has improved some! 😀

      I think that’s a great idea, hope it helps!

      To answer your question, I can do about 10 mins if I’m not doing a guided meditation, I’m not sure how long it takes me to do a body scan on my own since I tend to do it around bed time to help me fall asleep.

      Maybe you could start with a short meditation like the 5-10 mins ones on Youtube and ease into longer ones if that’s what you’d want. Also you could experiment with different styles of meditation to help find one that’s best suited to you. Personally I’m fond of R.A.I.N and Body Scan Meditation and Yoga Nidra. However you might like a walking meditation or a mantra based one, there are several!
