Thailand is a place where you can enjoy plenty of mindful experiences. These experiences can help to reduce anxiety and stress, which is great for mental health! So if you're planning a visit to Thailand, why not plan on trying some of these mindful experience ideas?
Breathwork Workshops
If you understand how beneficial breathwork can be, then you might want to master mindful practice to help yourself better manage your anxiety and stress. Trying breathwork and ice baths in Thailand is a great way to understand how to breathe deeply and manage your expectations during and after you pursue the experience.
Chase Waterfalls
Chasing waterfalls benefits your body, mind, and soul. Being in the water is a great way to invigorate both the body and the mind. There are plenty of waterfalls to discover and explore in Thailand - from south to north including Bok, Erawan, Bua Thong and more. If you love the water and love hiking trails, finding waterfalls and spending some time there will leave you with some amazing mindful benefits.
Soak Up The Culture At Temples
There are hundreds, if not thousands of temples throughout Thailand. And this Buddhist led country is home to some of the most beautiful temples in the world. Because these are religious spaces, they are always quiet. It's the perfect environment to help you calm your mind and achieve a sense of peace. Heading to a temple at any time of day will guarantee that you can achieve relaxation and a moment of quiet. So visit with the intention of having a mindful experience, while soaking up some local culture as well.
Morning Meditation On The Beach
If you're near or on one of Thailand's many beaches, consider trying or practicing morning meditation on the beach. There's nothing quite as therapeutic as the sound of the ocean waves hitting the beach when you have your eyes closed and are focusing on the present. It's a great idea to catch your morning meditation around sunrise so you can maintain your peaceful and quiet mind when there's nobody else around.
Indulge In A Cooking Class
Another calming and awesome experience in Thailand to help you practice mindfulness is to indulge in one of their cooking classes. No matter where you are in Thailand, you can find a cooking class that will teach you to cook the local dishes. Depending on where you are in the country, you'll learn to cook different dishes. Whether you like meat, vegetable dishes, rice or noodles, cooking local dishes can help you calm your mind and learn new things while you travel.
Conclusion
Thailand truly is a calm and peaceful haven, perfect for those who wish to boost their mental health and experience many mindful activities. Many of these activities are completely free. It doesn't cost anything to spend your mornings on the beach, wake up for sunrise in the jungle or visit a temple.
