🌅 Golden Moments 🌅

Do you know how long it takes for a positive experience to be processed into your long-term memory?

Research has shown that on average this can take 15 seconds or more... 

I have been sharing on the Kindred Soil Instagram, that our evolution has gifted us a 'negativity bias' - which has been hugely useful in keeping us alive, but less helpful in terms of mental health and wellbeing. 

However this is where mindfulness can help us! By intentionally engaging in the good, the positive experiences, we can start to literally rewire our brains and start to work towards rebalancing the positive and the negative. 

My invitation to you for this month...
 

Should you choose to accept it... is to spend just a little more time in the positive experiences. We like to call these 'Golden moments'. 

These can be small and subtle, it doesn't have to be anything dramatic. Just next time you notice a smile or a feeling of ease, warmth or happiness, let yourself stay in that experience for a little longer. Allow yourself to bathe in those golden moments 😊

Some Kind words from recent participants!
 

CIRCLE FEEDBACK 

"This is the first circle event I have ever attended and it certainly won’t be the last. It was like sitting around a fire sharing thoughts and feelings with people who genuinely cared what you had to say. Such a lovely and accessible way to socialise and connect with new people whilst also establishing a deeper understanding of yourself in the process. It was magical and I really felt like my ‘cup had been filled’ and like I had a moment to let myself breathe. It was like receiving a collective hug from an amazing bunch of people."

AUTUMN EVENT FEEDBACK 

"Kindred's Soil Autumn Equinox Event was stunning. Celebrating Autumn Equinox by seeking wisdom from nature and turning inward to find what no longer serves us and letting it go just like the leaves on the trees, I discovered a lot about myself and since have taken some actions to let go of some things that have been holding me back and made an effort to recalibrate and turn towards the good. The meditation, Eco Nidra, journalling and sharing was all beautiful. Harriet made me feel at ease and facilitated the event beautifully."
