Practice 18:
It’s ok if your mind needs a break.
When you have one of those moments when your mind isn’t working and you can’t track the thirty different things you’re trying to manage:
- don’t panic –
- give yourself permission to pause –
- jump, dance, or tap your arms & legs –
- sing, hum, or laugh –
- track 5 breaths –
- move your body more –
And then gently, gently bring yourself back to what truly does need to be addressed in the present moment.
