Surprise! We couldn’t resist adding one more episode to our October mindfulness journey. Today is Halloween, and Lele and Nieta invite you to explore a theme that fits the day perfectly: fear.
This special practice uses mindful visualization to gently observe and engage with fears whether it’s spiders, public speaking, or something else. You’ll learn how to notice your emotional and physical reactions, and how repeated, intentional exposure through mindfulness can help you build resilience and reduce fear over time.
Remember: fear is a natural part of being human. This practice isn’t about pushing fear away it’s about meeting it with awareness, compassion, and curiosity.

October Challenge 25 - Day 14 – Watching the Mind: A Thought Observation Practice
Welcome to Day 14 of our October mindfulness journey. Today’s practice is a gentle thought observation exercise that invites you to imagine your mind as an aquarium—full of colorful thoughts, emotions, and distractions swimming by.
Rather than getting caught up in each thought, this practice helps you take a step back and simply observe. Like watching fish through glass, you’ll learn to notice your thoughts without judgment, allowing them to come and go while staying grounded in your breath and body.
This is a powerful way to cultivate presence, especially as we head into the final stretch of our challenge.
