Hey there, I'm Julia Cartwright, and welcome back to Mindful at Work. It's Friday morning, and if you're anything like me, your to-do list is probably staring at you like a hungry cat. You've got meetings stacked like pancakes, emails piling up, and that nagging feeling that you're running on fumes. So today, we're going to hit pause together and reset that beautiful brain of yours.

Find yourself somewhere you can sit for just a few minutes. Even if it's your car, your office, or that weird corner by the bathroom—I don't judge. Sit up a little taller, but not like you're auditioning for the military. Just dignified. Comfortable. You.

Start by noticing your breath without trying to fix it. It's already doing its job. Breathe in for a count of four, then out for a count of five. In through your nose, out through your mouth. That exhale? That's where the magic lives. Every time you breathe out longer than you breathe in, your nervous system gets the memo that you're safe. You're in control.

Now here's the main practice. I want you to imagine your mind is like a snow globe. All those thoughts swirling around—the deadline, the awkward email you sent, what you're having for lunch—they're the snow. Don't try to catch it. Don't get frustrated. Just watch it settle. With each breath, imagine the flakes drifting down, slower and slower. Your mind naturally clears when you stop fighting the chaos.

Do this for the next two minutes. Just be with your breath and your settling snow globe. Notice how your shoulders drop. Feel how your jaw unclenches. That right there? That's you remembering who's in charge.

When you're ready, gently open your eyes and take one more intentional breath.

Here's what I want you to do today. Every time you transition between tasks or meetings, take thirty seconds and return to that image. Your mind is a snow globe. Let it settle. This tiny pause—and I mean tiny—will compound into focus that actually lasts. You won't be that person at four o'clock who suddenly realizes you accomplished nothing.

Thank you so much for spending these few minutes with me on Mindful at Work. Please subscribe so we can keep doing this together, because you deserve a workday that doesn't leave you depleted. You've got this.
