Mindfulness is an effective tool to keep us mentally well during difficult times. Since March of 2020, our lives have had many ups and downs. Schools were closed. Our favorite activities were put on hold. As colder weather approaches consider what can bring you a sense of calm. Personally, I admire sunflowers planted by my daughters in March. These sunflowers stop me in my tracks daily to remind me that life is beautiful. They give me a moment of stillness. What will stop you in your tracks and provide you a moment of peace?
