It was also believed that swans are mute all their lives, until the moment of their death, when they burst into exquisite, mournful song - it's from here that the word 'swansong' for a final performance was born.

This week's word for mindful consideration is "VOICE". Take a moment to consider your first reaction and then consider other perspectives. #Mindfulness #WordOfTheDay #voice

This week's word for mindful consideration is "MOOD". Notice your first reaction and then look for different perspectives.

@anuanew @proteidaes I agree! The colours in that final panel in particular are beautiful.

A final consideration from last week's word-mindful exercise. Taking that first step on a new road can be daunting unless standing still has become stagnation. #mindfulness #positivethinking #motivation

@tanyajwright Just spent the week mindful of the word "step" and this beautifully illustrates the range of emotion and possibilities that contemplation inspired.

[MagnoliaJoes @MagnoliaJoes]

Did you "step up" or "step down", "step forward" or "step back"? Was it a backward step driven by fear or did you take a step back to consider things better? And if you change the way you describe it does it change how it feels?

This week's word for mindful consideration is "STEP". Notice your first reaction and then look for alternative uses, examples, connotations. #mindfulness #mentalhealth #wellbeing #TuesdayThoughts #positivity #meditation

A final consideration of last week's exercise in being word mindful... #mindfulness #positivethinking #Wellbeing

@MindfulOnline So often stress becomes a background noise and goes unnoticed until it has already impacted your well-being.

[MagnoliaJoes @MagnoliaJoes]

So was your first reaction the disappointment of “only one chocolate left” or the upbeat thought “only two weeks until my holiday”? And who considered the unique treasure of “the one and only”? #mindfulness #psychology #psychotherapy #selfawareness

[MagnoliaJoes @MagnoliaJoes]

The word of the week is "ONLY". Is it a positive word or not? Emotional? Powerful? Notice your first reaction and then look for alternative uses, examples, connotations.

@DrDannyPenman That's true. But for some of us it is the mind which fidgets and that can, ipso facto, destroy the mindful experience.

Once our activities have interrupted your noisy mind and started you on the path to mindfulness, this is what you could achieve....

Everything is a process. Wouldn’t a nice, progressive straight line be great!? But our reality is always one that shifts, changes and moves around. It can feel really hard to ‘trust the process’ sometimes too. #recovery #counselling #psychotherapy
