Day 12 of the Heart/Brain Coherence Challenge

Twe

lve days ago I began a new practice to relieve stress, improve my health and amp up my happiness. It is free, it only takes 5 minutes or less, and it works! When you allow yourself to feel appreciation for just a few minutes, your body releases chemicals that improve immune function, make you feel wonderful, and heal your body on a cellular level. This is hard science, not airy-fairy, woo-woo stuff!

I include links in this post that will explain it better than I can.

Please consider joining me in this simple exercise to increase communication between your heart and your brain. I will post daily my own experience of this practice and its seeming effects.

Today, I sat in appreciation for my children. I felt a sense of wonder that I have been so blessed. I find that as I continue this practice, I am less and less on autopilot. I choose many more of my actions rather than mindlessly repeating negative thoughts and behaviors.
