In 25 days, I celebrate the beginning of my fourth decade on this planet & all that God has in store for me.

For each day heading towards my birthday, I thought I would write a wish or desire for my forties. I have thoroughly enjoyed my thirties and I know God has even more adventures around the corner.

Over the last two years, I have researched the mindfulness movement and started the practice of meditating in the evenings before bed.

Mindfulness practice means that we commit fully in each moment to be present; inviting ourselves to interface with this moment in full awareness, with the intention to embody as best we can an orientation of calmness, mindfulness, and equanimity right here and right now.

I would like to progress my practices to daytime meditation and utilizing mindfulness as a proactive tool for overcoming anxiety and reducing lack of focus (read my blog from earlier today: https://kimisloved.net/2019/09/20/too-many-tabs/).
