Happy Thursday! Enjoy connecting with your inner happiness this weekend 💗 . . . . . #mindfulness #mindfulme_dubai #mindfuldubai #dubai #thursday #weekend #qotd #quoteoftheday #gayhendricks #innerhappiness #happiness #happinessdubai #uae #delightinbeing #joy #delight #happy #innatewellbeing #wisdom #mindful #mindfulliving #inspiration #inspire #journaling #love #selfdiscovery Helen has been away visiting her family in green (and cold) New Zealand and came across this wonderful artwork in the supermarket carpark in Featherston. This resounding truth speaks deeply to our humanity - our need to be loved and connect with others. This looking for love and acceptance is our motive behind so many actions and is often the cause behind us breaking with our authentic selves by living roles others expect of us rather than our truth. When we live authentically we are saying to ourselves: "I love you". This allows us to not only see and hear others with compassion and kindness, but let them into our own lives too - allowing our authentic selves to be seen and heard. By understanding our deep need to be loved we understand our ability to love ourselves. We realise that we are, at the bottom of it, searching for self-acceptance and self-love. Read more about Helen's holiday and reflections in our newsletter later this week as well as updates on our retreats, events and workshops! Learn how you can be part of our compassionate mindful community. Interested in Authentic Living? The link to Helen's Authentic Living workshop is in our bio or email us on info@mindfulme.me for more information.

These well loved words and often quoted lines from William Blake's poem Auguries of Innocence create a sense of spacious connection and warmhearted gratitude that living mindfully opens up for us. These seem like grand examples - but we can find this beauty in simple everyday moments - watering a potplant, the sun on our skin, stopping to notice the breeze in the trees, folding the laundry, drinking water, laughing with loved ones, and even in the deep sadness of painful moments. #qotd #mindfulness #mindfulliving #authenticliving #authentic #mindful #meditation #uae #dubai #mydubai #desert #williamblake #inspirational #inspirationalquotes #beauty #truth #connection #awakeawareness #conscious #thursday Happy Thursday everyone! Do you ever find yourself looking forward to the weekend and then wondering where it went? Bring a mindful intention to this weekend and discover what the present moment holds for you and the space and rest that you can find in it - without it slipping by unnoticed! Our Mindfulness Practice workshop begins again this coming Monday (7pm - 9pm) - email info@mindfulme.me to register or for any questions. #mindfulness #weekend #thursday #mindfuldubai #dubai #jabalakhdar #uae #oman #delightinbeing #mindfulme #mindliving #mindful #inspirationalquotes #quote #qotd #awakeawareness #conscious #authenticliving #wisewords We are so excited to read Brene Brown's new book Braving the Wilderness! #quote #authentic #belonging #bravingthewilderness #brenebrown #inspired #qotd #mindfulme #mindfuldubai #authenticliving #mindfulliving #bookstagram #delightinbeing MINDFUL LISTENING WORKSHOP THIS SUNDAY NIGHT 7 - 9PM: You can tell when someone is really listening can't you? When they are tuned in and not distracted. You can tell because there is a real connection that happens - and that connection is energising and pulls you closer to the present moment too. Come and join us and we learn mindful listening skills that you can bring to conversations with loved ones, friends, colleagues and new connections. By bringing your own awareness you can help others do the same. "Eyes see only light, ears hear only sound, but a listening heart perceives meaning."

When you lift your cup, you may like to breathe in the aroma. Looking deeply into your tea, you see that you are drinking fragrant plants that are the gift of Mother Earth. You see the labor of the tea pickers; you see the luscious tea fields and plantations in Sri Lanka, China, and Vietnam. You know that you are drinking a cloud; you are drinking the rain. The tea contains the whole universe.” Thich Nhat Hanh. Loving the new blackboard art at @friendsavenue - we think we will join in and have a moment with you ❤☕ #mindfuleating #mindfulness #dubai #cafelife #cafe #mindfulliving #mindfuldubai #joy #delightinbeing #tea #coffee #qotd #thichnhathanh #conscious #meditate #mindfulme #blackboard #inspiration “We need to become the sanctuary we seek.” - Jack Kornfield Come join us in October on our very special Dhow Musandam Meditation Retreat for a peaceful experience of finding sanctuary in ourselves. The Dhow itself (part of the @sheesabeachdhow fleet) has airconditioned cabins and 3 decks and all the snorkelling and kayaking gear you could wish for to play with. Scuba diving will also be available onboard and time will be allocated to experiencing nature in our retreat programme. Email cindy@mindfulme.me for more details or to book. #retreat #mindfulness #meditation #meditationretreat #minduflnessretreat #mindfuldubai #mindful #uae #oman #meditate #sanctuary #jackkornfield #qotd #quote #mindfulliving #scubadiving #dive #snorkeling #dhow #weekendaway Everything we are looking for is already in us - it's innate. Our workshops and retreats are about connecting with that truth inside you; not adding or changing but recognising our true selves with compassion. We love this reminder from Thich Nhat Hanh ❤ We are also keen to try make these cute little seedling kokedames! #qotd #mindfulness #seedsofwisdom #seedling #wisdom #quotes #mindful #thichnhathanh #thichnhathanhquotes #consciousness #innate #truth #awakeawareness #dubai #mindfulme #mindfuldubai #mindfulliving #teaching #grow
