Sunday is a day of rest usually and relaxation so I thought a day of meditation was an order. So why not join us in a dog assisted calming meditation.
Skyler and I really hoped you liked joining us for a short meditation and hope you take it to new levels to become more grounded and calm in your daily life! You can meditate whenever and wherever you want.
How to meditate:
First find a quiet place to mediate, a place preferably with no distractions. No TV, no radio, no people talking, nothing to distract you at all.
Second, sit or lie down in a comfortable position, and get your dog sitting or lying right next to you (this can be KEY to really keeping calm!)
Third, and this is optional but something that could help keep your mind off the time factor. Set your timer to amount of time you want to mediate for. Got it set?....Good now that's one less thing to clutter up the mind!
Fourth, place one hand on your dog and the other hand on your heart (if you have two dogs- you can place one hand on each dog). During your mediation, you can keep your hand on your dog in one place or continuously pet your dog (this can be extra calming for your heart rate).
Now just remember to breathe......take a deep breathe in through the nose, hold it a second, and let it out through the mouth. Think of breathing in the good air and exhaling the bad air! Cleansing isn't it?!?!?
Healthy Tip of the Day- Just as you read the ingredients on your food, READ the LABELS on your dogs food.....is Sugar one of their first ingredients-hhmmmm that's not good! Make sure you can pronounce most if not ALL the ingredients in their food as well!
