Breathing Space

Settle your nervous system

So often it’s the moments when we feel we don’t have time to pause that we truly need it the most, and have everything to gain from simply slowing down, breathing deeply, and paying attention.

Use this 7 minute meditation to clear mental chaos and body tension — gently settling your nervous system as you move yourself toward balance, in this moment, just as you are. Enjoy this breathing space for your mind, body, and nervous system in the time that you do have. No rush.

Inspired by recent studies and books that I love, do check out A Brain That Breathes by Jodi Wilson and The Power of the Pause by jillian pransky.
