🔥 WEEKLY CHALLENGE! 🔥
Welcome to your STOP Challenge!
Because the Enhance PT team is indeed "stopping" for a week of rest from 21/09 to 26/09 this particular challenge seemed to be a good choice!
This week we’re going to take a quick dip into mindfulness by using a technique called “STOP” 2-3 times a day.
✅The STOP technique is a 4-step mental checklist that takes less than a minute to do – but it can pay off in less stress, more awareness, and an added sense of being “in the moment” vs. being caught up in your thoughts (or on your phone).
Here’s how to do it:
● Stop what you are doing
● Take a few breaths to centre yourself & become more present
● Observe yourself without judgement: emotions, thoughts, & physical sensations
● Proceed with greater awareness
While you’re in observer mode, try not to get too caught up in what it all means.
Instead, simply take a step back and note what’s going on. (Is the room cold? Are your shoulders tense? Are you feeling content or worried? etc.)
You might find that this technique helps you be more intentional about how you respond to what’s happening around you.
Aim for 2-3 “STOP” breaks every day this week.
