Find Your Center With Fitbit Premium’s New Mindfulness Tools

What is mindfulness? So much more than a mere buzz term of modern society, mindfulness is a practice, and existing more mindfully, a lifestyle. To elaborate, it is the practice of intentionally paying attention to the present moment, and making space to do so from a place of non-judgment. 

There are many ways to go about incorporating it into your lifestyle. Yes, you can do so by sitting in meditation—the typical mental image many of us conjure when considering ways to be more “mindful.” But why cap it off at just that? Mindful eating, walking meditations, and active listening are all intentionally mindful activities—and they come with a slew of benefits. 

If you’ve ever found yourself thoughtlessly checking off tasks on your to-do list at work, or looking back on the events of a day as if they’ve passed by in a blur, you’re certainly not alone. The first step to bringing more awareness into your day is—you guessed it—drawing attention to it. That means treating even the smallest tasks as mindful ones can make a huge difference. In fact, did you know that a single introductory “mindfulness session” (i.e. meditation) can help reduce anxiety levels? Seems like some pretty good incentive to get your Zen on, if you ask us. 

And that’s where Fitbit’s Mindfulness Tools on Premium come in. Keep reading to discover how you can tune in and get centered.

Mindful Eating: Breathe to Slow Down First. The breath is a powerful tool to calm down and get present before a meal. Slowing down before eating allows us to be present and enjoy the meal. Plus, it helps the body to shift into a more relaxed state, so our digestion functions optimally.

Relax from Head to Toe. Speaking of relaxed, those who love a good Savasana won’t be able to resist the Relax from Head to Toe exercise. Guided by a female voice, this body scan meditation moves through your entire body, beginning at the top of your head and ending with the soles of your feet. 

Guided Meditation to Start Your Day. Set the tone for your day by taking a few moments for yourself. Magical morning routine in just 6 minutes, anyone?
