10 Ways to improve your Mindfulness.

I’m sure you’re so sick of hearing that you should try meditation, especially from your (recently) yoga-crazed friends. But mindfulness is a lot more realistic to achieve than the kind of meditation you hear about, it doesn’t require loads of practice. I bet that's a relief! It only takes 30 minutes (or less!) sitting right at your desk at home, work or even in a quiet room.

Similarly, podcasts are a great on-the-go news source. I love listening to Pod casts as it helps me to unwind without completely wasting away in front of the TV. How about you? I have nothing against relaxing that way, but it doesn't feel the same. I’m a big fan of podcasts my favourites are The Good Life Project and TED hour. If I am having to commute, nothing better than sitting and listening to half of it on the way to work, half on the way back, and the stories always appear relatable to a situation been in.
