Are you feeling especially stressed lately? Do you have 100 things on your mind at one time? Do you feel like you are fighting to just stay above water?
If so, take a minute to clear your mind. Set a timer for a minimum of 60 seconds, close your eyes, and take some deep breaths. Focus on your breathing and if other thoughts come into your head, just push them out and re-focus on your breathing. Breathe and inhale deeply, then slowly exhale.
If you have more time for deep breathing, click on this link for the Mindfulness Practice Center at MU for some guided deep breathing, relaxation, and mindfulness resources.
How do you feel afterward?
