Close your eyes.
Take a few deep, cleansing breaths…in through the nose and out through the mouth.
Allow your breathing to return to a comfortable, even pace.
As you breathe, imagine breathing in peace and breathing out stress.
Say to yourself as you breathe…
Breathe in peace, breathe out stress.
Breathe in peace, breathe out stress.
Breathe in peace, breathe out stress.
Continue until you feel calm and relaxed.
Great tips, Michele. I will print this for my office, that’s where all the stress lives!
I sure hope you don’t have to spend much time in your office, Sue!
I so love how the breath saves me, time and time again. A great reminder, Michele!
It does, doesn’t it?! I always amazed at the power of a simply breathing.
Love it Michele. I don’t need it today, but I will remember that you write this post, and I will go back to find it when I might feel stressed. 馃檪
It’s been so helpful for me during those really stressful times. I hope you find it useful as well 馃檪
