This is the second Minisode of this Podcast series; yay! In this episode we discuss How To Practice Mindfulness While Reading. There is no Mindfulness exercise. The Closing Thoughts are a few relevant quotes about the benefits of reading and the joys of books.

Axel G's Website: axelg.com/what-is-mindfulness.html

I found all the quotes on: https://bookroo.com/blog/the-100-best-quotes-about-reading

“To learn to read is to light a fire; every syllable that is spelled out is a spark.” – Victor Hugo

“A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies . . . The man who never reads lives only one.” – George R.R. Martin

“Think before you speak. Read before you think.” – Fran Lebowit

“In the case of good books, the point is not to see how many of them you can get through, but rather how many can get through to you.” – Mortimer J. Adler

“I kept always two books in my pocket, one to read, one to write in.” – Robert Louis Stevenson

“Wear the old coat and buy the new book.” – Austin Phelps

“You may have tangible wealth untold. Caskets of jewels and coffers of gold. Richer than I you can never be — I had a mother who read to me.” – Strickland Gillilan

“The man who does not read good books is no better than the man who can’t.” – Mark Twain

“No entertainment is so cheap as reading, nor any pleasure so lasting.” – Mary Wortley Montagu

“Outside of a dog, a book is a man’s best friend. Inside of a dog, it’s too dark to read.” – Groucho Marx

“A children’s story that can only be enjoyed by children is not a good children’s story in the slightest.” – C.S. Lewis

Today's Episode:
Today's Story is Urashima and the Turtle. The Mindfulness exercise is The Emotional State of Happiness. The Closing Thoughts are on Nostalgia and moving forward / future possibilities.

*Slight Disclaimer* This story ends sadly; if you are not in a good place, you may find it troubling. I encourage you to do the Mindfulness exercise as you will truly benefit from it but perhaps you should skip the story until you feel you are in a better state of mind.

TITLE: Urashima And The Turtle

AUTHOR: Unknown; accredited as a Japanese Fairy tale although the tale originates from the legend of Urashimako (Urashima no ko or Ura no Shimako) recorded in various pieces of literature dating to the 8th century

VERSION: The Golden Book of Fairy Tales, Translated by Marie Ponsot and Illustrated by Adrienne Segur

Today's Episode:
Today's Story is Little Red Riding Hood. The Mindfulness exercise is 1 Object, 5 Senses. The Closing Thoughts are some activity suggestions for self-care.

TL;DR - Those Suggestions are:

• Take a long, warm bath: Make it a good one; it’s not about hygiene it’s about pampering yourself. Get all the senses involved by lighting a candle or getting some essential oils burning. Listen to soothing music or perhaps a podcast (wink wink, nudge nudge).
  
  
• Stretch, but like really. Don’t just pull your leg up for 5 seconds and call it good. Really take your time with every part of your body - there’s a technique my Acting teacher used to have us do, where you go down your body from your head to your toes and each body part, you would tense while you slowly breathed in - hold it - and then release the tension as you let out your breath. We would lay on the floor to do this but you can lay in bed or just sit in a chair but make sure your full weight is being supported.
  
  
•  Mini Dance Party: If you don’t like the slow, quiet times, mix it up! Put on some happy music that’s easy to dance to and get to it! Or maybe you can find some music videos or popular TikToks and dance with them; that’ll for sure get you laughing!
  
  
• Take a walk: It’s a very popular activity to practice mindfulness and to just enjoy some silence. You can even find a bench or somewhere to just be and embrace the quiet. That’s a two-for-one idea, for ya!
  
  
• Tasty Treat: If food is not a trigger for you, it’s a fun way to feel a little pampered by getting a piece of dessert or whatever your favorite snack food is and indulging a little without judgement. Allow yourself to enjoy that food and practice the 5 Senses technique on it, to get some mindfulness exercise in while you’re at it!
