(World Mental Health Day) Self-care checkpoint!
In honor of World Mental Health Day, let's take a moment to check in with ourselves. Here are your reminders to:
Adjust your posture! Sit up straight! This also applies to your neck and head. Are you looking down at your device right now? 🛑 and elevate it!
Stretch! It does wonders. I like this post from @amiablePeace77 on stretching
Hydrate: Have you had enough water to keep your body and mind functioning at their best? Yup, that's water! Go grab a glass now.
Breathe: Perhaps one of the most underestimated calming agents. We have really good practices you can do right now to reconnect with your breathing. I just did this one before publishing this post: https://www.7cups.com/exercises/mindfulness2/
Be sure to bookmark this post and tag each other too if you're know they're slacking (kidding) or if you just want to remind them. We are much more likely to succeed as accountability buddies so let's look out for each other.Now that you've checked in with yourself, you can keep doing this on a daily basis under a member account using our LEG (Learn Explore Grow) dashboard. Read about it here!
Have you done everything to cross the checkpoint? 👋 below!

P.S. If you noticed anything off in this post, it's purposeful to see if you're paying attention. 😜 Paying attention is what mindfulness and self-care are all about. Now, proceed to the checkin!
Posture is lacking. I do stretch often as it works the kinks out, which is probably caused by my bad posture lol!
Water is eh. I prefer it in other forms. I know I should drink more but that's about as far as it goes.
I do pay close attention to my breathing though

@Heather225
I love this post! Just adjusted my posture and grabbed a glass of water! Cheers to hydration! 🥤
Stretching sounds great too and I took a moment to breathe deeply and it feels amazing!🧘♀️
Thanks for the reminder to look out for each other, it’s always more fun with accountability buddies! So, who’s slacking? Just kidding! 😄
@dtanushree let’s keep checking in and supporting one another🙃

@Phoenixthepoised
Loved reading it and took a break to stretch, drink water and breathe mindfully!!
Yess phoenix I agree with you.. lets keep supporting each other ❤️💯
I love streching.. my favourite yoga pose for stretching is Bhujangasana(Cobra Pose)
I'd like to tag @KatePersephone Franse and @tryingtosurvive2024 ❤️❤️❤️
Doing ok, posture is ok. Ballet classes starting on Monday.
Checkpoint in the graphic is spelled wrong, but instead of calling you out on it I figured might as well make a little joke. Check-punt would be an even funnier spelling.
I hope you all have a nice weekend with many moments of sparkling joy!
Love and Courage Always,

LOL, when I really looked at it, it’s spelled really wrong LOL.

Since I have allergies my nose is often stuffy. It makes it hard to do the breathing exercises.
(p.s. if you notice something off about the post yes it’s on purpose and part of the “stop what you’re doing and check in” theme 🤭)
