How
01
Find your moment: Choose a simple cue - after waking, before sleep, or during a short break.
02
Sit or stand comfortably: Close your eyes if you like. Place your feet on the ground and relax your shoulders.
03
Take 3–5 slow breaths: Inhale gently, exhale fully. Notice the quiet between breaths - nothing to fix, nothing to achieve.
Easy Start
Before your next meal, pause for three slow breaths and notice the stillness between them.
Why It Matters
A short pause helps you step out of the day’s noise and reconnect with yourself. It steadies your thoughts, restores focus, and gives you a sense of calm and control.
Questions and Thoughts
- “I don’t have time.” → Even 30 seconds counts; pair it with an existing routine.
- “My mind won’t stop racing.” → That’s okay—just notice the breath; no need to control thoughts.
- “Feels odd.” → Try it once in a private spot; comfort grows with practice.
Care Notes
If stillness feels uncomfortable or brings up tough feelings, switch to a different card or speak with someone you trust. This is a gentle pause, not a fix-all.
