This week's mindful activity
As well as brushing your teeth mindfully this week, try to find another mundane activity which you can engage with mindfully. But most importantly this week, practice being kind to yourself. See if you can notice when you're not being kind to yourself and change the script! look after your self care as a matter of urgency!
