Hi there, and welcome to today's Mindful at Work practice. I'm so glad you're here, taking this moment for yourself in what might feel like an increasingly demanding workday. As we step into this June morning, I know many of you are feeling the mid-year pressure—projects piling up, expectations mounting, and that sense of overwhelm creeping in like a subtle fog.

Let's take a deep breath together and create a small sanctuary of calm right where you are. Whether you're at your desk, in a meeting room, or finding a quiet corner, allow yourself to settle. Close your eyes if that feels comfortable, or simply soften your gaze.

Imagine your attention is like a gentle stream of water—fluid, adaptable, capable of flowing around obstacles. Take a slow breath in, feeling your chest expand, and as you exhale, let tension drift away like leaves on that stream. Your breath is always here, always steady, even when work feels chaotic.

Today, we're practicing what I call the "Anchor and Flow" technique. Think of your mind as a beautiful sailboat. Your breath is the anchor, keeping you grounded, while your focus becomes the sail, directing your energy with intentionality.

With each inhale, imagine drawing in clarity and purpose. With each exhale, release distractions and mental clutter. Notice thoughts as they arise—work concerns, to-do lists, worries—and imagine them as clouds passing across your mental sky. You don't need to chase them or push them away. Simply observe, then gently return to your breath-anchor.

As you continue breathing, set a gentle intention for your workday. Not a rigid goal, but a soft, compassionate direction. Perhaps it's approaching tasks with curiosity, maintaining presence during challenging conversations, or giving yourself permission to take mindful breaks.

Your breath continues to ground you, your awareness becoming a powerful, calm presence. You're cultivating a responsive—not reactive—relationship with your work.

As we complete our practice, carry this sense of groundedness with you. When stress rises, you can always return to this breath, this moment. You have everything you need right here.

Thank you for practicing Mindful at Work today. If this resonated with you, please subscribe and share with colleagues who might benefit. Your commitment to mindfulness matters. Until next time, breathe easy.
