A lot of people in today’s world are living with a low level of anxiety that’s difficult to work with. Those people have probably put themselves in a position where they have a lot of negative self-talk and a lot of self-criticism. They’re good at catastrophizing situations and things that are just in their heads, and often they don’t feel very well. When we’re highly stressed, we end up with inflammatory or autoimmune types of conditions and an all-round mental and physical sense of unwellness. Mindfulness coach Clarissa Hughes shares her own journey of compassionate self-awareness and becoming steady, awake, and aligned with what truly matters to her. She works with clients to help them get crystal clear about how their mind chatter is impacting their choices and their ability to thrive and how to build powerful steps to becoming their compassionate self.

When most people think of mindfulness, they think of meditation.  Yet, mindfulness coach, Clarissa Hughes, says mindfulness is much more than meditation. Being mindful involves being present in the present moment. You aren't dwelling on the past or focusing on the future. Instead, you are dwelling on the now and focusing on the activities you are participating in. When people begin to master mindfulness, they are less stressed and anxious and more peaceful. website: https://thelittlebreathingspace.com podcast: The Little Breathing Space (iTunes)
