Leaves on a Stream - Mindfulness Exercise
£0.00
Let anxious thoughts pass — without being pulled along by them.
This guided mindfulness exercise is based on a well-established ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) technique that helps you observe your thoughts without getting caught up in them.
Picture placing each thought — a worry, a criticism, a distraction — onto a leaf, and watching it float gently downstream. You don't fight it. You don't push it away. You simply let it pass.
This exercise will help you:
Step back from anxious or unhelpful thoughts
Loosen the hold that worry has over your day
Build a calmer, more present state of mind
Develop a kinder relationship with difficult thoughts
Ideal for riders who experience repetitive or intrusive thoughts around riding — or anyone wanting a simple, effective tool for everyday anxiety.
Find a quiet, comfortable place. Never listen while driving or operating machinery.
