We here at DEMI+CO have put together this blog post to share with you some information on achieving your Zen and what it means to live with a Zen mindset.

 

Are you in touch with your spiritual side or do you need some advice on how to achieve a more ‘Zen’ way of life? Scroll down to our quick quiz to find out how zen you really are. This blog post has been written as a bit of fun to explain what a Zen mindset is, how helpful it can really be and to show you some of our spiritual wall art and inspiring prints that can help you to create a Zen living space.

 

We understand that some people take spirituality very seriously and we appreciate all mindsets, this blog post is a light hearted way to shed a bit of light on achieving your Zen.

 

What exactly is a ‘Zen’ mindset?

A Zen mindset is a calming mindset that aims to see all things for the first time. This means that those who achieve Zen explore the world with fresh eyes and don’t let things such as emotions get in the way of living a calming and collected life. There are actually studies that think that those that live with a Zen mindset are happier and kinder to others, while living life with more clarity and purpose.
Those who choose to live with a Zen mindset allow their experiences to be free without judgement, and allow their thoughts and feelings to happen naturally. How you focus your attention is very important when trying to achieve Zen. To achieve a Zen mindset you must act thoughtfully and mindfully, for example, rather responding emotionally to negative experiences, it is best to respond thoughtfully, by thinking mindfully about the experience.

How do positive affirmations work and help?

Positive affirmations are positive things that you tell yourself to help banish negative thoughts. All you have to do, is choose a positive quote or two and repeat them to yourself regularly and there you go, you are practicing positive affirmations!

Research has shown that repeating positive affirmations regularly can really help how you feel, how you think and boosts your self-esteem. We definitely recommend giving it a try yourself, and choosing some positive affirmations to repeat to yourself daily and see whether it really does make you feel more positive about yourself. The benefits of doing this include decreasing stress and increasing academic achievement for students.

Why not frame one of our positive prints as an affirmation you can read out to yourself every day?

Quick 5 Question Quiz on How Zen You Are

Take our simple five questions quiz to find out how Zen you are and how you can become more mindful.

1. How often do you mediate?

a. I meditate not often or not at all. I have never really understood meditation or it has not been something I have gave much thought.

b. I meditate sometimes. If I have a free day off work or a free weekend, I take some time to meditate and breathe out any stress from the week before.

c. I meditate regularly. I couldn’t imagine not meditating every day and I have my own meditation room to allow me to focus on my breathing and my inner self.

        2. What would you say causes you the most stress usually?

        a. I would say it would either be my job or finances. I definitely think I work to live, so sometimes it leaves me feeling burnt out from work or worrying about my pay check or savings.

        b. I would say the things that cause me the most stress are family or other relationships. I think I can be a people pleaser and sometimes worry too much about what others think of me.

        c. My body or my overall health causes me the most stress, because I aim to make sure that I am always looking after myself and I sometimes worry that I am not doing a good enough job.

          b. It takes me a bit of time to fall asleep, but I sleep through the night and wake up feeling well rested.

          c. I am out like a light and can pretty much sleep anywhere. I am definitely a deep sleeper, but I am an early riser too, so the best of both worlds!

            b. I crawl out of bed slowly and enjoy the experience of waking up.

                b. Try to take your mind off of it and preoccupy yourself by reading or doing another mindful hobby?

                  If you scored Mostly A’s you are probably quite Unfocused.

                  It is possible that you tend to get distracted quite easily, whether that is from worrying or stressing about things out of your control or whether that is letting your emotions get the best of you. You perhaps worry too much about what people think of you or you commit yourself to doing too much and end up overworking yourself.

                  The next time you are feeling overwhelmed, take a few deep breaths as this can really help ground yourself. If you wanted to take your mindfulness further, why not try a self-help book, a meditation class or practice daily affirmations?

                  If you scored Mostly B’s, you are a Zen Jedi!

                  You have managed to achieve a little more Zen in your life, but you have a little way to go when times are tough. You could practice some mindful techniques such as yoga to help you with stressful times. With a little more work then you can master the art of Zen, feel better about yourself and live a more meaningful life in the process.

                  Copper magnetic bracelets guide

                  novembre 13, 2024

                  When we first started DEMI+CO our first few magnetic bracelets were all copper, we never realised the popularity of copper bracelets and copper magnetic bracelets till our first few orders were made and then they just took off. Since then, we have continued to add to our copper magnetic bracelet collection making it one our largest magnetic bracelet collection to date. The dual benefits of copper and magnets is what makes the bracelets appealing as well as the aesthetic rose coloured hue of copper which gives it its warmth and shine. Recent requests of copper bracelets without magnets have resulted in us also adding a no magnets range too.

                  9 things you didn’t know about stainless steel bracelets

                  octobre 09, 2024

                  We have covered stainless steel as a topic many a times over the years with a number of blog posts, we do get a lot of customer questions and feedback over our stainless steel bracelets. Stainless steel is an incredibly versatile metal. Majority of our customers prefer stainless steel magnetic bracelets over any other metal. Stainless steel has so many benefits and is a classic all-rounder when it comes to mens stainless steel bracelets and womens stainless steel bracelets. We find that for those who require a magnetic bracelet but have an active lifestyle stainless steel seems to be the best option due to its durability and flexibility over a longer period of time.
