Shower Meditation: Turning a Daily Routine into a Mindful Sanctuary
A daily shower routine has become a peaceful sanctuary for an individual, transforming into a mindful meditation space. The author, guided by Elisha Goldstein's 'Mindful in Minutes' podcast, finds solace in this simple act, setting intentions and reframing thoughts.
The author's bathroom, a small haven adorned with art, scented candles, and plants, sets the stage for this calming ritual. Here, they practice breathwork and mindfulness, finding a guided meditation particularly helpful. The running water serves as a reminder to observe surroundings and feel gratitude.
The meditation helps the author feel more present and aware of their body. It's a transition space, moving them from sleep mode to doing-things mode. The author has made important decisions, cried, laughed, sung, and meditated in the shower, turning a mundane activity into a sacred practice. Bathing has always been a ritualistic practice for the author, helping to drown out anxious thoughts and ground them back in their body.
The author's shower meditation, guided by Elisha Goldstein, is more than just a morning routine. It's a transformative practice that fosters mindfulness, reframes negativity into optimism, and prepares the author for the day ahead.
