Stressed? Anxious ? Overwhelmed?
Stop what you’re doing. Drop in to your body. Now breathe.
There are many things you don’t have control over but you do have control over your breath. Knowing how to use your breath to calm your nerves and shift your state of mind can feel like a superpower. Take it from my 13 year old client who says it used to take him one hour to fall asleep but now he does his breathing and he falls asleep in two minutes 🧡
