Welcome to Mindful Moments. I'm Julia Cartwright, and I'm so glad you're here. You know, midweek mornings like today can feel like you're trying to pour water into a cup that already has cracks in it. That restless, scattered energy—I see you. And that's exactly why we're breathing together right now.

Let's start by finding a comfortable seat, somewhere that feels safe. You might be at your kitchen table, in your car before work, or tucked into a quiet corner. Wherever you are is exactly where you need to be. Go ahead and settle your shoulders down, away from your ears. Feel that? That little release. That's already the beginning.

Now, I want you to take one deep breath in through your nose. Not forceful, just natural. Let it flow in like you're catching the scent of something you love—fresh coffee, ocean air, your own sense of calm. Hold it for just a moment. Feel your chest expand. Then exhale slowly through your mouth, like you're gently fogging a mirror. Let that tension go.

Here's what we're going to do for the next few minutes. We're practicing what I call the River Breath. It's simple, but it's incredibly grounding. Breathe in through your nose for a count of four. One, two, three, four. Pause. Now exhale through your mouth for a count of six. One, two, three, four, five, six. The longer exhale signals your nervous system that you're safe. It's like telling your body, we're not running from anything right now.

Let's do this together. Breathe in. Two, three, four. And out. Two, three, four, five, six. Again. In. Two, three, four. Out. Two, three, four, five, six. Notice how your body responds. Maybe your jaw softens. Maybe your hands rest heavier. Maybe your thoughts, which were racing like squirrels, start to slow down. That's not just nice. That's your physiology changing.

One more round. In. Two, three, four. Out. Two, three, four, five, six. Beautiful.

Here's something I want you to remember as you move through your day. Whenever you feel that scattered feeling creeping back, pause and do just three rounds of River Breath. That's it. Three breaths can shift everything. It's a small anchor to this calm you're feeling right now.
