Brain Clutter

I don't know about you, but when October 1st comes around I sometimes find myself forgetting to find quiet time for myself. Do you feel the same way? It is so important to find those precious few moments where we can cease the chatter in our head to keep ourselves healthy during this time of year. The practice of Yoga teaches us how to clear the brain clutter in our heads by practicing the postures, watching our breath, and meditation. Stress happens when we become overwhelmed with both our daily activities and the constant self talk. Can you find 5 minutes today to turn inward, maybe just watching your breath. Or, what about a brisk walk to admire the beautiful colors of this season? Can you turn this into a new daily healthy habit? I promise you, a calm mind helps create a calm day. Try it!
