We will begin as we do all Mindfulness meditation practices by sitting comfortably and focus on our breathing; Dr. Willard says if you need to, take a few deep, calming breaths, to quell the immediate sense of anxiety. When you are ready, you will then check in with yourself by using SEAT. S.E.A.T. 2.) S is for Senses and SensationsStart by checking in with your body. What information are you getting through your five senses, and what information are any sensations in your body giving you right now?3.) E is for EmotionsWhat emotions are present in this very moment?4) A is for ActionsWhat do you feel like doing in this moment? Any urges or impulses to action?5) T is for ThoughtsWhat thoughts are present in this moment?You can walk through these mentally or if it would help, you can write down a few words or even draw some pictures to describe what’s happening in each part of the mindful SEAT. Sometimes, just putting it to paper can feel like a great release and you might start getting a new perspective on the issue or situation. If you'd like to hang out with me more, check out my YouTube Channel - TierTwo WorksSuggestions, Comments, and Requests are Welcomed!Email me directly at [email protected] Elevator Pitch:Settle into bed, tuck in the covers, and snuggle up as Cari reads you a bedtime story; or grab a copy and read along!  Hello and Welcome to “Reading with Cari” a Mindfulness Podcast series that can be used as a Sleep Aid or to ease your anxiety and relieve your stress.
