1 Minute Mindfulness Exercise: Visual Awareness

1. Take a deep breath and give yourself permission to relax into this moment.
2. Look around you. What is the first thing that you see? Is it book? Is it a cup of pens? Is it your computer screen?
3. Take a moment to really look at that item. Outline that item with your eyes.
4. What color is it? Is it bright? Is it dark? Does it look soft? Does it look like it would have a texture if you touched it? Does it have writing on it? What does it say?
5. Allow your eyes to follow the lines on the item.
6. Now, look for something on that item that you’ve never noticed before. If that item is a computer or phone, look at the other parts of the item that are not the screen. Where are the buttons on this item? Are they raised or are they flat?
7. Really get to visually know and dissect this item.
8. Now, say the name of this item at least three times, out loud or internally. This confirms to your mind and body that you are connecting to and identifying something that exists outside of your thoughts.
9. Finally, reach out and touch that item with your hands, and thank it for being in your life.
10. Notice how, for the last minute or more, you did not think about things that worry you. Feel the impact of being stress-free, if even for just one minute. Smile and congratulate yourself!
