RACHAEL KABLE
About this episode

Hello and welcome to episode 288 of The Mindful Kind podcast. In this episode, you'll learn about a helpful stress management technique called "Personal Thinking Time."

Not only do I enjoy using this technique myself, but I often recommend it to my clients, as well. 

Here are some tips for implementing Personal Thinking Time:

  • Minimise distractions 
  • Be open-minded. Some sessions might feel effortless and productive, while some might feel challenging or confronting
  • Save your "over-active" thoughts for Personal Thinking Time
  • Remember you can end your session whenever you want

To find out more about working with me one-on-one via Skype, head over to www.rachaelkable.com/podcast/288 

Thank you so much for listening and I hope you have a wonderful week, Mindful Kind.
