DESTRESS WITH A MINDFUL SHOWER: INSTRUCTIONS:

DESTRESS WITH A MINDFUL SHOWER to soothe your feelings of stress, worry and anxiety. It’s time to stress less.

This is a mindful activity designed to calm you /wash it away. Beware the worry trap.

Close your eyes: DESTRESS WITH A MINDFUL SHOWER

Visualise your bathroom

Place yourself in there (using your own mind’s eye)

Imagine the following sequence of mindful events:

  1. Place your clothes in the laundry basket: the worries that stuck to your clothes get washed later on
  1. Turn the hot and cold water on in the shower: set the temperature just right for you
  1. Step into the shower. Lift your head up and feel the pressure of the water massage your face. Allow this to relax you
  1. After a moment turn around and let the pressure of the water massage your back

your breath

  1. Enjoy this as you focus on your breathing: let it be slow and natural
  1. Lather soap or shower gel into a shower sponge (visualise your favourite one)
  1. Begin to massage your body as you cleanse it. Use a circular motion as you practice self care. You allow your stress, anxiety and worry to leave your body and get rinsed away with the soap suds

rinse it away

  1. Smile as the stress leaves your body, being rinsed off and going down the drain
  1. Raise your head up and allow the water to rinse you fresh (new water for new moments)
  1. Allow your smile to stay on your face as you turn off the water and kindly dry yourself with your towel

feeling great

  1. Feeling fresh and brand new
  1. Nice and relaxed
  1. Now you can open your eyes

Remember to always look after yourself, and see yourself with potential.
