We might <em>know <\/em>that mindfulness will help us \u2013 but are we actually doing it? We are have received so much lovely feedback for our little series that we want to end it with something practical \u2013 something you can take along \u2013 to become more conscious and aware.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We present you with a little one-week mindfulness notebook, so that you can start every day with a mindful pause of five minutes, maybe two \u2013 at least to begin somewhere. You can take a long breath, write down what is happening inside you, or simply try to free your mind.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We hope you enjoy it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Mindfulness Notebook<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Find a small blank notebook or booklet at home, something that fits in your pocket and can be carried everywhere.
