概要

 Hello, and welcome back to Mindful Moments. I'm Julia Cartwright, and I'm so glad you're here with me today. Whether you're stealing five minutes before the day gets away from you, or you're finally sitting down after hours of go-go-go, I want you to know that showing up right now, in this moment, matters. So take a breath. You're exactly where you need to be.

I'm guessing that if you're tuning in today, life might feel a little scattered. Maybe your mind is bouncing between a dozen different things, or your shoulders are somewhere up by your ears. That's so normal, especially when we're caught in the current of our daily lives. The beautiful thing? We have a tool that's always with us, always available, and it costs absolutely nothing. Your breath.

Let's settle in together. Find a comfortable seat, whether that's in a chair, on the floor, or even standing if that's what works for you right now. Close your eyes if that feels good, or just soften your gaze downward. And notice where your body is right now. What's touching the ground? What's holding you up? Just observe without judgment.

Now, let's bring our attention to the breath. I want you to try something I call the Ocean Breath. Imagine your inhales and exhales as gentle waves rolling in and out from the shore. Breathe in slowly through your nose for a count of four, feeling the cool air as it enters. Then pause for just a moment. Now exhale through your mouth for a count of six, making it slightly longer than the inhale, like the wave slowly retreating back out to sea. Let's do this together for the next few minutes.

Inhale through the nose, one, two, three, four. Hold. And exhale through the mouth, one, two, three, four, five, six. Let the shoulders drop. Release the jaw. Again, inhale, one, two, three, four. And exhale, one, two, three, four, five, six. You're doing beautifully. Keep this rhythm going, letting each breath wash away a little bit of the day's tension. There's no performance here, no perfect way to do this. Just you and your breath, creating calm from the inside out.

Wonderful. Now, as we close, I want you to carry this Ocean Breath with you. When you feel that familiar flutter of stress today, even for just one breath cycle, remember this feeling. You've got this built right in.
