Dessert Practice: BLIPS of Awareness for Intentional Living
Sep 10, 2025
This Dessert Practice is designed to follow Episode 3: From Reacting to Responding and gives you a practical, gentle way to bring that episode’s message into your life.
BLIPS is a 5-step micro-practice Alyssia created during her graduate work in mindfulness. It’s simple, repeatable, and powerful—perfect for any moment of transition.
Whether you have 3 minutes between tasks or want to set the tone for your day, this practice can help you:
- Return to the present moment
- Let go of unconscious reactivity
- Connect with your intention
- Stay anchored in what matters
- Reclaim freedom in your everyday choices
BLIPS = Breathe · Let Go · Intention · Pay Attention · Self-less
Use this practice as often as you like. Over time, you may find it becomes second nature—helping you live more intentionally, moment by moment.
Try this practice before your next transition—before a call, a meal, or even before bed. Then let me know how it felt. Tag or DM @alyssiasheikh and share your experience of being more present.
