Hi Friends!

Today I am joined by Kristen Manieri who is a writer, mindfulness teacher and host of the 60 Mindful Minutes podcast. I invited Kristen onto our show during this crazy time of COVID-19 to talk about how mindfulness can help to reduce stress (something we are all dealing with during quarantine!).

During our conversation, we talked about:

• Kristen’s journey into mindfulness
• How mindfulness has given her coping strategies to become a more patient mom
• What to do if you struggle with quieting your mind, or even finding the time to get started
• Helpful tools to keep inside your “toolbox”
• How to keep from passing your anxiety onto your kids or spouse
• The link between outer order and inner calm
• Resources, including books and apps to guide you along the way (see links below)

Kristen shares advice for parents who have younger kids who miss their friends, and are tired of being cooped up at home, but may not have the language or maturity to articulate how they are feeling.

Today is a great day to begin your mindfulness practice. Kristen’s recommendation: start with 5 minutes per day and work up from there. Make sure to check out all the links to help you get started, including her free 5-day course!
