What Is a Mindful Mindset?
What Is a Mindful Mindset?
A mindful mindset is more than just a practice, it’s a way of living. It’s about approaching each moment with awareness, openness, and calm curiosity. When we adopt a mindful mindset, we shift from reacting automatically to responding thoughtfully. A mindful mindset is pausing before reacting when you’re upset, listening fully instead of multitasking, taking a deep breath when you feel stress rising, viewing challenges as opportunities to learn, not obstacles to fear. It helps you move through life with greater balance, resilience, and peace. Take it one moment at a time.
For the month of October, take a few minutes and try one of these activities.

Cigna recommends six ways you can save on your healthcare bills. Medical care can be costly and overwhelming for many. Having a health plan helps, but out-of-pocket costs can still come as a surprise. The good news is, there are ways you can help avoid unexpected bills, and even lower the expected ones.Use these tips to get going.1. Create a separate savings account. Put aside money each month in a separate account to cover your deductible and then some. A health savings account (HSA) is a great option if your employer offers it.2. Understand your plan. Choose doctors and facilities that are in your plan’s network, and ask for medications that are on your plan’s list of approved drugs.3. Ask your doctor whether tests or procedures are necessary and the cost. Your health plan’s website may also have cost estimates so you can plan ahead.4. Choose the right level of care. For non-life-threatening medical issues, an urgent care facility may cost significantly less than a trip to the ER. You can also make an appointment at your regular doctor’s office or clinic.5. Go generic. Ask your doctor about generic or less expensive forms of medication. And find out if there’s a 90-day-supply option.6. Use 24-hour health information services or virtual care. Connect with a nurse advocate* who can give health advice. Or you could speak with adoctor via phone or video chat, possibly eliminating a trip to the doctor’s office or the ER.Fun activities to do in CT.
