Welcome to Day 5 of our October Mindfulness Challenge! Today’s practice is a classic grounding technique known as 5-4-3-2-1, designed to anchor you in the present moment using your senses.
Through this guided exercise, you’ll explore:

5 things you can see
4 things you can feel
3 things you can hear
2 things you can smell
1 thing you can taste

This sensory-based practice is a powerful way to reconnect with your surroundings, calm your mind, and cultivate awareness — anytime, anywhere.
🧘‍♀️ What you’ll experience today:

A full-body sensory check-in
A simple tool to reduce stress and increase presence
A reminder that mindfulness is always available, no matter the day or setting

Enjoy!
