    96: How to become mindful rather than mind FULL

    Do your thoughts come racing at you as soon as you wake up? Oftentimes our minds run wild with the to-do list, reflections on previous conversations, or predictions about upcoming meetings.

    It’s no surprise that the average human processes 6200 thoughts per day. 

    These constant racing thoughts can lead to anxiety, restlessness, and a general lack of peace without us even becoming aware of it. 

    That’s where mindfulness comes in. Performing acts of mindfulness can help ease a full mind by simply becoming more aware of the present moment. 

    On this episode of The Balanced Life podcast, you’ll learn how to become more mindful and less mind FULL.
