March 10 is Sashbear’s Mindfulness Day

Each year on March 10, we celebrate the birthday of Lynn and Mike’s daughter, Sasha, with a day of mindfulness. This day is all about grounding ourselves in the present and celebrating the beauty of the here and now. It is a day dedicated to cultivating awareness, compassion, and balance in our lives. This helps us to be effective and reduces our suffering.

For Mindfulness Day 2024, we compiled a video featuring Sashbear volunteers showcasing diverse ways they incorporate mindfulness into their daily routines. There are many ways to be mindful. Finding what works for you and remembering to do it is important. We hope this video inspires you to be more mindful in your own life.
