Greetings
all!
Here is
the June-2021 calendar from CALM: so many wonderful suggestions for mindfulness
and self-care. Take a moment for yourself and
remember to breathe!
My
favorite ideas were from June 5, 17, and 25 – something we can incorporate
into each and every day!

from
June 1
- Be aware
of the armor you wear to protect yourself. Explore laying down the armor that
you no longer need.
June 2-
Your body
is your home. Honor it. Put a hand over your heart and silently say I am as you
inhale and home as your exhale.
June 3
- Be
vulnerable with someone you trust.
June 4
- What
parts of yourself do you hide from the world? Those parts of you need your love,
acceptance, and compassion today.
June 5
- Schedule
at least 15 minutes of pure enjoyment into your busy day.
June 6
- Listen to
the mind and heart equally when you're making decisions today.
June 7
- Try a
meditation in the Relationship with Self Series.
June 8
- Ride the
waves of change rather than resisting uncertainty. Trust in your ability to
weather any storm.
June 9
- Which
quality about yourself do you wish to strengthen today?
June 10
- Set a
timer for 5 minutes and journal. Start with the prompt: "When I listen
carefully, I hear my heart say...”
June 11
- Connect
with your inner artist. Dance, write, draw, paint. Whatever it is, allow
yourself to create unselfconsciously.
June 12
- Use the
exhale to help you release any self-judgement or criticism that is holding you
back.
June 13
- Make a
list of your qualities and success, even if you find it difficult.
June 14
- Lean into
self-trust. Give yourself the advice you need to hear today. You've got your
own back!
June 15
- Look up
at the sky tonight and notice how it feels knowing that everyone's nights are
lit by the same moon.
June 16
- What gift
are you being offered today? Take a moment to savor it.

– “Be
yourself. Everyone else is taken”. Notice where you compare yourself to others
and try to embrace your uniqueness.

where you put pressure on yourself to be a certain way. How can you meet
yourself with more compassion?
June 19

yourself a hug!

of yourself. What can you celebrate about yourself today?
June 21

taste.
