WHY YSK- Many people practice mindfulness and meditation as part of their lives, and some would like to but feel like they don’t have time to sit down and meditate properly. Once you’ve gotten used to doing it as a part of your daily activities, it becomes easy to simply take a few breaths and gain some peace from your everyday existence. You don’t need to wait for a time when you can sit and clear your mind completely. It’s a nice bonus, but not necessary for living a mindful life.
Juggling a soccer ball and shooting a basketball are two that work for me, running as well. I think the key is something that requires just a bit of your attention ( I like the dish washing example above) but once you’re able to do it without much thought that’s when your mind can lapse away from conscious stream of thought.
