I think anyone would agree when I say that life is all about balance. Back in High School I somehow managed to be a part the marching band, tennis team, Link Crew leadership club, National Honor Society, and keep good grades, friends, family, and sanity without batting an eye. Multitasking all of that was like nothing to me! Nowadays, I can barely balance blogging, modeling, friends, family, a relationship, and starting my own company.
...
I'm not really sure where those balancing skills went to, but they should give me a call.
...
Since the slow decline of my master multitasking, I've done my fair share of research on balance. What I've found to work the best for me? To breathe, believe, be mindful, and meditate. Of course I've also slowly been discovering tools to help me in those practices. Something I recently stumbled upon was Mala Prayer Mala necklaces. Malas are a tool used in meditation to assist in concentration. Here's how they work:
...
Hold your Mala, and choose a mantra to be repeated that will help you concentrate. Something short and inspirational! While meditating, gently turn each one of the 108 Mala beads while repeating that mantra. When you have reached the end, take a moment to reflect, and give thanks for a successful practice. It's a simple way to make your meditation even simpler! Not to mention, they are beautiful just to wear, and many are made of crystals that are believed to contain healing qualities! So if you feel as frazzled as I do sometimes, or are just looking to work on yourself this coming new year, give Mala Prayer a try!
