Article 1<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It can be helpful to keep our \u2018 mindfulness muscles\u2019 in shape during the good times, so that when we really need this greater awareness during tough times , they are strong. One great way to give our mindfulness muscles a workout is to pay deliberate attention to our routine , everyday activities . Even doing this once a day can be beneficial .<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As mentioned earlier, being on autopilot is risky for people prone to depression, because we can miss the warning signs that may signal a downward spiral .

So when can we practise everyday mindfulness? <\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The answer is any time! You might choose a new task to focus on each day, or stick to the same for a week to see how your awareness develops. The list of possible times is endless but here are a few examples: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
