Throughout your day, pause, notice what your thoughts are up to, and invite them (with a smile) to settle on your anchor.
Then continue doing what you're doing with more awareness.
(Check out the Mini Meditations that help with the pause)
IT'S RECOMMENDED TO CONTINUE WITH THE ANCHORING PRACTICE

PRACTICAL DAY-TODAY 'RELEASING TENSION' PRACTICE
Throughout your day, pause, notice what your thoughts are up to, and invite them (with a smile) to settle on your anchor.
Then NOTICE THE MOMENT: Physical sensations, emotions, sounds, sights....
Now allow more time to notice your physical sensations.
If you have time, release bit by bit, using your exhales, from the crown of your head to the soles of your feet.
If not so much time, imagine a wave of relaxation washing down your body.
Feel grounded - feel the contact of your feet on the floor,
visualise roots from your waist down: deep, deep into the earth.
Continue doing what you're doing with more awareness, releasing habitual tensions..
