Wishing you a wonderful, peaceful, holiday weekend โค๏ธ๐ค๐ โโโโโโโโ Here's a powerful breath exercise you can do at any time and anywhere. It will allow for expansion and connection to your soul. If you give yourself a few moments to breathe, you will raise your vibration, clear your mind and open the doorway to creation. 1. Take a moment and just breathe. Notice what you notice without judgement. Allow your breath to expand through your body. As you exhale, visualize a release of what is not neededโฆ stress, overwhelm, worry. Take four to five breaths to connect.โโโโโโ 2. Place your hands on your diaphragm, at the base of your ribs. Feel your diaphragm expand and contract as you breathe. 3. Visualize your diaphragm as a balloon. As you inhale, the balloon expands in your chest, middle and lower belly. Allow your inhale to be long and your exhale to be shorter, yet gentle. 4. As you connect to the rhythm of this breath, allow your body to set the pace. Relax and let go .... This simple exercise on a regular basis can help you to relax. ๐ in bio for all the details on our classes and private sessions or send me a message.

I'm excited to share my recent conversation with Kari Eckert ๐ #rePLANOLY @robbieshope1 Breathing practices have many benefits when incorporating mindfulness techniques and can help pull the mind away from distractions to increase focus and attention. By oxygenating the body, breathing helps to redirect the mind during stressful or anxious situations. Following the activities listed below, you should be able to balance the mind and body connection. My guest today is Mary Rondenet. Mary has been swimming with whales and dolphins since 2007 and has had some amazing encounters. Her experiences have helped her to become a more passionate and joyful person. Viewing her experiences from the perspective of being a WhaleBreathing Coach, a Certified Transformational Breathยฎ Facilitator and EnergyTouchยฎ Practitioner, she realizes that being with these magnificent beings has helped her to reconnect to the most important thing in life, her breath. https://bit.ly/4aqEdtd (LINK IN BIO) Listen on your favorite podcast station or watch on our YouTube channel at: https://youtu.be/xv0NoVAoj0Y For additional resources visit us at: https://bit.ly/3Rq0GjM Follow us on Instagram (robbieshope1), YouTube (robbieshope), and Facebook (robbieshope2018)

At Pure Breathwork, I AM creating something unique for every person, session, or event that is bespoke to your needs. I truly believe a new paradigm of healing is here; through the power of Breathwork & Fascia Manorucers from @humangarage, I can access the body stress release mechanism and take you on a journey to completely relax the body, which allows you to enter the Breathwork stage with less resistance. Your mind and body are working with you, not against you. I AM seeing significant transformations in my client's response to getting the body prepared first and having fun whilst we are releasing years of past experiences and emotions with absolute ease. Fascia manoeuvres are the cherry on top of Breathwork; I promise you I never thought I'd be able to say that, but combined, it is one of the most powerful, profound journeys you will ever go on. Relaxation is key to any breathwork session. This is the greatest combo for healing I've seen in many years! I absolutely have fallen in love again! Thank you @humangarage To come book a session DM meir go to pure Breathwork.org #purebreathwork #humangarage #breathe #move #stratch #release #breathwork #fascia #fascialstretchtherapy #breathingmeditation #selfhealers #purefascia #pureloveโค๏ธ
Did you know that combining conscious breath with conscious thoughts can be a powerful tool to transform your life in a positive way because the mind gets the power from the breath. But it can work in the opposite direction too. If we are practicing breathwork but didnโt clear our mind, our negativity can feed off the power we are receiving from our breath. A lot to practice! #breathwork #breathingmeditation #breathawareness #breathquotes #breathmastery #danbrulรฉ #danbrule #consciousbreathing #mastermind #creativity #awareness #awakening #mindfulness #mentalhealth #selfmastery
3 TOOLS TO EMBRACE A DON'T QUIT MINDSET 1) START SMALL: Take microsteps - one microstep at a time. Microsteps are tiny, habit-building changes that are too small to fail. 2) BELIEVE YOU CAN: Give yourself a little pep talk - tell yourself "you've got this" - "keep going." "Believe you can and you're halfway there." ~ Theodore Roosevelt 3) REFRAME SETBACKS: We all make mistakes and we all fail at one time or another - that's life. Instead of seeing them as "weaknesses" consider these "opportunities for growth." I know I learn WAY more when things don't go my way than when they DO! #caregiver #caregiversupport #mentalwellbeing #mentalwellness #courage #hope #support #empowerment #selfcare #breathe #breathingmeditation #stressrelief #stressmanagement #burnoutprevention #personalgrowth #personalgrowthjourney #growthmindset #recommit #dontquit

What is self love? Moving away from ego and into deep understanding of who we are and how we project ourselves into the world. Self love isnโt a bubble bath or a shopping spree.. Itโs caring so deeply about your own healing, the way you interact with yourself, the time you give yourself to rest and play. Self love is digging into the deepest parts of the shitty side of yourself, or the way you self sabotage in order to people please and get ahead. Itโs having the courage to know what you project into the world and why, and taking steps to make change. Itโs an understanding of what youโre doing and saying and what parts of those things are coming from conditioning and fear and what parts are truly you and coming from pure love. To love yourself is to love and learn To care so deeply that you gain wisdom and knowledge from each breath, each move, each beat To grow and evolve into your own unique fluorescence so you are in a state of deep magnetisation for what you want and deserve. Become magnetic baby! Love you! Caroline ๐ซ
This is Chandrabhedhan Pranayama or left nostril ๐ breathing or moon ๐ breathing . How to do Chandrabhedan pranayama? Tips :- This practice is carried out by inhaling through the left nostril, as this helps to clear any blockages in the Ida Nadi, which begins in Muladhara Chakra and ends in the left nostril. Ida Nadi governs the parasympathetic nervous system, and is therefore related to calmness and relaxation. Benefits:- Chandra Bhedana Pranayama activates the parasympathetic nervous system, which can help with relaxation, digestion, and healing. It can also help regulate bile flow and reduce body heat. Contractions:- Chandra Bhedana Pranayama during winter or cold months, and if you have a cold, cough, or nasal infection. People with low blood pressure or asthma should also not practice it. #chandrabhedana #pranayama #leftnostrilbreathing #moon #moonbreathing #pranayama #breathingtechniques #breathingexercises #lunarforces #ida #nadi #breathingmeditation #chandrabhedipranayama #activates #pranayamabreathing #om #spirituality #varanasi #2024 #may #wednesday #calmness #peace #relaxation
Today is National Meditation Day and in our world of constant busyness and demand placed upon us by ourselves and others, I encourage you all to give it a try. Our nervous systems deserve a break from time to time, so this momentary pause in your day is a small sacrifice of self-care ๐ Here are just five examples of different kinds of meditation you can try. Even just 5-10 minutes out of your day can make a difference. Without pressure on yourself to make it any certain way, simply turn your focus inward and enjoy your flow of breath. Thoughts and distractions can of course ariseโฆ note the experience and then return your focus to your breath. โจ #nationalmeditationday #meditation #calmyourmind #calmyournervoussystem #youdeserveabreak #breathingmeditation #walkingmeditation

We still have a few more weeks until we're officially half-way through 2024 - how are YOU doing with YOUR intention and goals for 2024? Just knowing this stat - almost half of all people abandon their resolutions - intentions - or goals for a new year has me wanting to renew my commitment to my intention. OR, like me, you could dust yours off and "pivot" or "refresh" it to make it more realistic. After all - the "R" in SMART goals IS realistic!! Maybe intentions feel HARD? Maybe you're worried about not living into your intention? Or perhaps you're concerned about facing your fears or are feeling discouraged or even disappointed? We all get off track sometimes. Practice self-compassion - be gentle with yourself. You've done hard things before - you can do it again! Take a pause - consider where you went off course - and commit to trying again tomorrow. Recommit in a kinder and gentler way. #caregiver #caregiversupport #mentalwellbeing #mentalwellness #courage #hope #support #empowerment #selfcare #breathe #breathingmeditation #stressrelief #stressmanagement #burnoutprevention #personalgrowth #personalgrowthjourney #growthmindset #recommit #dontquit

On May 18, 2003, I experienced profound grief following the loss of my daughter, Catherine Rose. Despite my flawless pregnancy, fate had other plans for me. Holding Catherine after her passing was a bittersweet moment, made more poignant by the presence of my mother, who had also endured the loss of a child at birth. In that shared sorrow, I realized my mother had never held her own daughter. In a gesture of solidarity, I passed my baby to her, saying, "Let's grieve together." This year, Catherine Rose would have turned 21, prompting reflections on the significance of community and mental health support in times of loss and hardship. This month marks Mental Health Awareness Month, and recently, I was in Colorado attending Robbieโs Hope annual gala. Robbieโs Hope is a foundation dedicated to eradicating the stigma surrounding teen depression and suicide. It's a cause close to my heart, given that suicide ranks as the second-leading cause of death among teens in the U.S. and the primary cause in Colorado, where Robbieโs Hope originated.

As we near the end of month #5 in 2024 ... it's a great time to revisit our intentions and goals we had set in January! AND aligns with our topic this week - REcommit - don't QUIT! In January I had sent an intention to "find ME again" in 2024. The end of 2023 was rough for me as a caregiver - I found myself in a familiar place - fatigued, exhausted, and depleted. I longed for a version of myself that felt better - more like my "old" self. As I forge ahead throughout 2024, continually learning and growing as I go - it has occurred to me that this intention was perhaps not very realistic. After all, hasn't my caregiving changed me - in all the ways (for better/worse)? I continually find myself growing in patience, boundaries, active listening and hard conversations. (OR should I say I am continually tested in these by my care-recipients, offering opportunities for growth?) Perhaps a more authentic intention for 2024 is to "find who I am becoming" - how can I take what I've learned to be the best version of the NEW me? #caregiver #caregiversupport #mentalwellbeing #mentalwellness #courage #hope #support #empowerment #selfcare #breathe #breathingmeditation #stressrelief #stressmanagement #burnoutprevention #personalgrowth #personalgrowthjourney #growthmindset #recommit #dontquit
Proper breathing is often overlooked but may hold the key to breaking through your current health, fitness and performance challenges. I'll use Strength Training as an example. Picture thisโฆ you're due for a heavy set of Barbell Squats, 8 reps, midway through you're struggling to hold form, technique is breaking down AND you're unable to catch your breath. Sound familiar? If so, you might be missing out on the benefits of intentional breathing skills specific to Strength Training and even more specifically for Barbell Squats. Here's the lowdown, When exerting force, balance is key. You need balance between 'flexibility and stability' and you need balance between 'breathing and breath holds'. When under load, such as pushing or pulling external weight, this balance creates optimum stability. When you're pumping out body weight reps like pushups, pull ups, or performing cardio like sprints or boxing, how you sync your breath (either in-sync or out-of-sync with your movements) changes the intensity of your movements. Quick forceful bursts of breath for high-intensity power efforts, and slow, controlled breaths for low-intensity movements. When it comes to stretching, mastering your breath can take you deeper into poses, calm your mind, and ease muscle tension. Changing the length of your inhales, exhales and adding breath holds can help you discover tight areas you didn't know exist, sink deeper into stretches, and unlock greater flexibility. So, why settle for average when you can breathe your way to greatness? Take control of your breath, elevate your training, and unleash your full potential. Ready to breathe better?

Breathing is something we constantly do, often without paying any attention to it. However, this simple action can be used as a tool to improve your mental and physical health. Breathwork meditation involves consciously and mindfully changing your breathing patterns to improve relaxation. There are many reported benefits of breathwork meditation, from reducing stress and anxiety to improving sleep and mood. It may also help with the symptoms of certain physical illnesses. Combining breathwork with meditation allows you to potentially reap the benefits of both techniques. Try all the guided breathing meditation available on Morphee Zen and Morphee to help you include mindful breathing to your day. . . . #breathwork #wechoosemorphee #breathworkmeditation #breathingmeditation #breathingbetter #freemeditation #breathbetter #mindful #mindfulpractice #reducestress #healthtips #bettermentalhealth #bestill #stillness #breathingexercise #dailymeditation
๐ฌ๏ธ Quick Breathing Meditation โจ Feeling a bit overwhelmed or stressed? Take a moment to pause, breathe, and find your center with this quick breathing meditation. 1. Find a comfortable seat, close your eyes, and place your hands on your lap or gently on your knees. 2. Take a deep inhale through your nose, feeling your lungs fill with air. Count to four as you breathe in, allowing your belly to rise. 3. Hold your breath for a moment at the top, then exhale slowly through your mouth, counting to six as you release the breath. Feel the tension leaving your body with each exhale. 4. Continue this rhythmic breathing pattern for a few rounds, allowing your mind to focus solely on the sensation of your breath. 5. With each inhale, envision positivity and calm entering your body, and with each exhale, visualize stress and tension melting away. 6. Take one final deep breath, slowly open your eyes, and take a moment to notice how you feel. Remember, even just a few minutes of mindful breathing can work wonders for your mental well-being. #BreathingMeditation #Mindfulness #InnerPeace #SelfCare
Guilt is a feeling often experienced when we act against our values. Shame is a deeply held belief about our unworthiness as a person. @BreneBrown, shame and vulnerability researcher says it best when she says: โI believe that there is a profound difference between shame and guilt. I believe that guilt is adaptive and helpful โ itโs holding something weโve done or failed to do up against our values and feeling psychological discomfort. I define shame as the intensely painful feeling or experience of believing that we are flawed and therefore unworthy of love and belonging โ something weโve experienced, done, or failed to do makes us unworthy of connection. I donโt believe shame is helpful or productive. In fact, I think shame is much more likely to be the source of destructive, hurtful behavior than the solution or cure.โ #caregiver #caregiversupport #mentalwellbeing #mentalwellness #courage #hope #support #empowerment #selfcare #breathe #breathingmeditation #stressrelief #stressmanagement #burnoutprevention #personalgrowth #personalgrowthjourney #growthmindset #guilt #shame #selfcompassion
According to @BreneBrown, the opposite of shame is empathy and self-compassion. Theresa Wiseman shares The Four Attributes of Empathy: - To be able to see the world as others see it - To be non-judgmental - To understand another's person's feelings, and - To communicate the understanding of that person's feelings Of course .. one of our favorite videos from Brenรฉ Brown on EMPATHY (link in bio)! And NO - empathy is NOT sympathy - that is one of my all-time pet peeves!!

Do you ever have those days or moments when you realize you have been holding your breath? We will often hold our breath without realizing it when we are feeling stressed, anxious, excited, or frustrated. Breathing meditations can provide immediate stress relief helping us feel more centered, peaceful, and in control. I've included a couple of my favs below. Try one and take it slow. Box Breathing - In addition to a stress reliever, box breathing can improve concentration and performance. 1. Breathe in, counting to 4 slowly. Feel the air enter your lungs. 2. Hold your breath for 4 seconds. 3. Slowly exhale through your mouth for 4 seconds. 4. Repeat steps 1 to 3 a few times, or until you feel better. Belly breathing - Can reduce tension in the neck and shoulders, massage the heart, and activate the parasympathetic nervous system (responsible for rest and digest). 1. Place your hands on your belly, thumbs at the navel and fingertips below. And breathe. 2. On the inhale, allow the belly to expand under your fingertips. 3. On the exhale, contract your navel, emptying your belly. โข Sometimes it is helpful to envision an ocean wave. Inhale belly out, exhale belly in. โข As the expansion and contraction become more natural, focus on keeping a rhythmic breathing pattern, where the inhale and exhale are equal. Hope you feel better! Lots of love! #gracewellnesshealthcoaching #gracewellness #healthcoaching #integrativehealth #breathwork #justbreathe #breathingmeditation #stressrelief

@BreneBrown Shame Resilience Theory outlines 4 steps to build your shame resilience: 1) Recognizing the personal vulnerability that led to the feelings of shame 2) Recognizing the external factors that led to the feelings of shame 3) Connecting with others to receive and offer empathy 4) Discussing and deconstructing the feelings of shame themselves How can YOU build your shame RESILIENCE? If this exercise triggers you in any way - reach out to connect with someone from your team - your professional support, a trusted friend or family member, or reach out to @CourageToCaregivers.

Breathe in the fear of the unknown For many people (including myself), starting with breathwork can be - or was - scary. You donโt know what to expect.

This week we're ALL in for shame researcher @BreneBrown. In her now famous TedTalk she talks about the difference between the two. "Shame is a focus on self, guilt is a focus on behavior. Shame is, "I am bad." Guilt is, "I did something bad." How many of you, if you did something that was hurtful to me, would be willing to say, "I'm sorry. I made a mistake?" How many of you would be willing to say that? Guilt: I'm sorry. I made a mistake. Shame: I'm sorry. I am a mistake." If you haven't watched her TedTalk - I highly recommend it!

We often use the terms guilt and shame interchangeably, but they are actually very different experiences with different causes and triggers. Guilt is defined as having committed a specific or implied offense. Shame is the painful feeling of humiliation or distress caused by the awareness of wrong or foolish behavior. #caregiver #caregiversupport #mentalwellbeing #mentalwellness #courage #hope #support #empowerment #selfcare #breathe #breathingmeditation #stressrelief #stressmanagement #burnoutprevention #personalgrowth #personalgrowthjourney #growthmindset #guilt #shame #selfcompassion

How CAN two truths both be TRUE? Think about how you can meet your thoughts, emotions, and experiences in the MIDDLE. In Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) the TOM skill can be used. TOM stands for THOUGHT - OPPOSITE - MIDDLE. T - THOUGHT: Notice your thought. "I'm a completely burned out caregiver." O - OPPOSITE: Next, what is the complete opposite of that thought? "I'm a caregiver who is healthy and flourishing." M - MIDDLE: Now, move to the middle. "I'm a caregiver, and I'm not taking care of myself." It's important to validate how you FEEL - and then notice what's in your power and control. You CAN take care of yourself - you have the ability to shift your thinking from "all or nothing" to "both/and" ... it may mean a mindset shift - yet, I believe in YOU! #caregiver #caregiversupport #mentalwellbeing #mentalwellness #courage #hope #support #empowerment #selfcare #breathe #breathingmeditation #stressrelief #stressmanagement #burnoutprevention #personalgrowth #personalgrowthjourney #growthmindset #bothand #dbt
Being mindful of one's breathing in the moment, taking concious control over it to lengthen the breath with deeper inhales/exhales, whilst relaxing the belly and breathing through the nose, can contribute significant benefits for the performance and well-being of athletes and coaches during sport ๐ฌ๐ซ๐ง โ ๏ธ Furthermore, the ability to breathe in this way can be trained and enhanced through mindfulness meditation ๐งโโ๏ธ ๐ To learn how to control your breathing in this way, click the link in the bio to watch the full video on YouTube ๐๐ #mindfulness #mindfulnessmeditation #meditation #bellybreathing #diaphragm #diaphragmaticbreathing #breathcontrol #sportsperformance #neurobiology #sportspsychology #breathwork #mindtraining #breathe #breathing #breathingmeditation #mindfulathlete #mindfulcoach #sportsperformancetraining #sportsmentaltraining #sportsmentalhealth #neuroscience #nasalbreathing #nosebreathing #conciousbreathing

Simple breathing techniques can be powerful tools to calm your mind and ease anxiety in the moment. Here are two easy practices you can try anywhere, anytime: ๐. ๐๐ก๐ ๐-๐-๐ ๐๐๐๐ก๐ง๐ข๐ช๐ฎ๐: This technique combines focused breathing with counting for a calming effect. โข Find a comfortable position, sitting or standing with your back straight. โข Gently exhale all the air from your lungs. โข Close your mouth and inhale slowly through your nose for a count of 4. โข Hold your breath for a count of 7. โข Purse your lips and exhale completely through your mouth for a count of 8. โข Repeat this cycle for several breaths, focusing on the sensation of air flowing in and out. ๐. ๐๐จ๐ฑ ๐๐ซ๐๐๐ญ๐ก๐ข๐ง๐ (๐๐ข๐ฌ๐ฎ๐๐ฅ ๐๐ซ๐๐๐ญ๐ก๐ข๐ง๐ ): Imagine yourself drawing a square with your breath. โข Inhale slowly through your nose, picturing the vertical side of the square (count to 4). โข Hold your breath for a count of 4, visualizing the top of the square. โข Exhale slowly through your mouth, picturing the downward side of the square (count to 8). โข Hold your breath again for a count of 4, visualizing the bottom of the square. โข Repeat the cycle for several breaths, focusing on the visual image of the box.

"If you cannot make a change, change the way you have been thinking. You might find a new solution." ~ Maya Angelou "Many of us believe that truth is ubiquitousโthat if something is true, its opposite must be false. Sometimes we need to act our way into our beliefs, literally. To change our underlying assumptions, we need to start behaving in ways that reflect what we want to believe. โYes, andโ reminds us that there are multiple truths and that we, therefore, do not have to simply reject someone when they challenge our assumptions. Importantly, honoring someone elseโs reality does not mean that we have to agree with it. It means that we recognize and respect their reality. We can then learn from and expand on this reality. The next time you are in a conversation. See what happens when someone says something that might challenge your ideas. In that moment, pause and check in with what you are thinking and feeling. You might be feeling a bit threatened, even angry. You might be thinking of the defensive arguments that you would make to challenge their perspective. Instead, try responding with โYes, and.โ What if you started by truly honoring their position? Then, rather than reject it, see how you could build on it in light of your own insights. Then check back with yourself. How has this โYes, andโ informed your own mindset? Has it allowed you to see multiple perspectives? How has it changed the nature of the conversation?" ~ Toby Sinclair recap from "Both/And Thinking" by Wendy Smith and Marianne Lewis #caregiver #caregiversupport #mentalwellbeing #mentalwellness #courage #hope #support #empowerment #selfcare #breathe #breathingmeditation #stressrelief #stressmanagement #burnoutprevention #personalgrowth #personalgrowthjourney #growthmindset #bothand #dbt

You know we're huge fans of DBT - Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. Thinking in extremes, also called polarized thinking or black-and-white thinking, is a way of looking at the world from an all-or-nothing mindset. It doesn't allow us to see the DIALECTIC in a given situation - "the existence of opposites." Dialectical thinking allows us to see BOTH - two perspectives - two truths in EVERY situation. This is REALLY hard for SO many people - most people. With training, for me it was DBT, I was able to SEE both truths. I can listen, seek to understand, and acknowledge/validate your truth for you. I don't have to LIKE it, or adhere to it, I need to see and understand and validate. You control your thoughts; they donโt control you. Stop, take a breath, think about the gray area in between the black and white extremes. When we are willing to spend time in the middle, we build relationships, explore other perspectives, and experience a growth mindset. #caregiver #caregiversupport #mentalwellbeing #mentalwellness #courage #hope #support #empowerment #selfcare #breathe #breathingmeditation #stressrelief #stressmanagement #burnoutprevention #personalgrowth #personalgrowthjourney #growthmindset #bothand #dbt
Weak boundaries cause emotional pain.. Growing up being conditioned to think, act and fear like your caregivers and peers is not the best when the world is continually changing. I was so naive when I was growing up, I was sheltered because my parents couldnโt afford to socialise. I was taken care of by my older brothers who were physically and emotionally abused. I was actually (and very luckily), the only person in the household that wasnโt physically abused, to a greater extent, but my mistakes and accidents still came at a huge price for a little girl who didnโt understand the world. This creates conditions in your mind that you have to please, be perfect, stay quiet, walk on eggshells and never ever rock the boat. You end up with such weak boundaries that you stop valuing yourself. At 42 years old, I have only just began to say how I feel in most situations. I have only just found my voice enough to not be absolutely petrified someone is going to shout and scream if I say something they donโt like or makes them feel bad. I have only just regained the control of my nervous system enough to speak proudly, openly and honestly about my thoughts and feelings without feeling like Iโm in imminent danger. And that inner peace is the most beautiful thing you can experience when your world has always been filled with extreme chaos. And this is why I have found deep love for myself, and my life, and have surrounded myself with the most beautiful, powerful situations and relationships.

Another way to meditate ๐ค Mantra Meditationโจ Have you heard of it? ๐ญ Mantra translates as 'mind tool' - a way to focus the mind and sustain your attention. Think of something- an idea or concept that you would like to invite more of into your life... Forgiveness? ๐๐ผ Creativity? ๐จ Love? โค๏ธ Improved self worth? ๐ช๐ผ Courage? ๐ฅ As you breathe in, say the word to yourself in your head, followed by a slow, deep exhale and repeat as many times as you like. You could start with a minute! โ You could pair it with it's opposite, for example- Breathe in courage and breathe out fear' ๐ซ Really try and feel and visualise what it might look and feel like to invite more of this 'word' into your life. This photo captures the joy felt after hiking up 700m of mountain roads in torrential, hammering rain and allowing myself to feel the benefits of having invited more courage into my life โฐ๏ธ How might mantra meditations help you? #mantrameditation #mindtool #meditate #meditation #courage #yogameditation #mantrayoga #determination #breathingmeditation #feelbetter #improveselfesteem #meditationforselfworth #reflection #yogi #yogiofinsta #yogaeveryday #meditateeveryday
