Don't forget to breathe?

It's Monday, and you are crazy busy, swamped. Once you get home, you become a taxi service, carting kids to different events. Then you will need to make dinner for the family. After dinner you may try and take a breath, wrong! Take the breath, right when you get up, and once you made it to work, take another breath, breathe. Inhale, and then exhale, off to the next meeting. As you are walking from one meeting to the next, or driving across town from one event to the next, take a breath. Feel the oxygen coming into your body. Embrace the air. For some of you, putting that phone down after each call and breathing will help you. We become so wrapped up in the day's events, that we forget to breathe. Stress can come in all forms through your day. You have the ability to take a breath any time you want. Self can manage it's own stress by learning how to breathe in certain situations. Practice taking breaths during your day. Instead of always reacting to every comment, question, email, text, or phone call, breathe first, then take another breath, let it out, and then see how you want to answer. Self learns how to balance its thoughts with breaths. Stay in your health, stay in the moment.
