Mind full or mindful?

In my professional practice there is a lot of attention given to being mindful (for those of you that don't know I work in a Specialist Support High School). We promote the importance of being aware of how we feel, as some children struggle to understand the emotions they are feeling and may act out as their way of communicating. By making them aware of their emotions, they learn to channel their emotions and consequent actions into more beneficial channels.

Considering my awareness of the benefits of being mindful for my personal well being. I can only describe my mind as feeling like this:


I feel I am making steady progress with Module 2, but I am aware that the end is drawing closer. Juggling personal, professional and social aspects of my life seems to be causing me to fumble at present.

 This picture may not perfectly represent what is going on as I don't feel down by the chaos in my head, I feel I am simply hoping my journey down the waterfall and rapids brings me out to a calming pool - before the next descent that is.


The below quote is definitely going to be my mantra! Take back control, prioritise and most of all enjoy!

Anybody else feeling like this??
