À propos de cet audio

Hey there, friend. Welcome back to Mindful Mornings. I'm Julia, and I'm so glad you're here, especially on a Friday morning in early December. You know, this time of year can feel like you're drinking from a fire hose, right? The holidays are creeping in, your inbox is probably doing backflips, and you haven't even had your coffee yet. So today, we're going to do something really gentle together. We're going to create some space between you and all that noise so you can actually feel like yourself again.

Before we dive in, I want you to find a comfortable seat. Somewhere you won't be interrupted for the next five minutes or so. That could be your couch, your kitchen chair, even your car if that's your sanctuary right now. There's no wrong answer here. Now, let your shoulders drop away from your ears. You didn't realize they were up there, did you? Nobody ever does.

Let's start with something I call the anchor breath. It sounds fancy, but it's really just a way to give your wandering mind something to hold onto. Breathe in through your nose for a count of four. Feel the coolness of the air, notice how your belly expands like a balloon filling up. Hold it for just a second. Now exhale through your mouth for a count of six, like you're fogging up a mirror. We're going slower on the exhale because that's what tells your nervous system it's safe to relax. Do this three more times with me. In for four, hold, out for six. Let's do it.

Now that you've settled a little, I want you to imagine your mind as a snow globe that someone just shook. All those worries, all those to-do lists, all that December chaos? They're swirling around right now, and that's completely okay. Your job isn't to stop them. It's just to notice them gently, like you're watching snowflakes fall, and let them drift past. When your mind catches onto a thought, and it will, that's not failure. That's the practice. Gently come back to the anchor breath. In for four, out for six. You're doing great.

Here's my challenge for you today: carry this anchor breath into your morning. When you're about to open that email, or you feel that first flutter of holiday stress, pause. Four counts in, six counts out. Just once. That tiny moment of space you create is where clarity lives.

Thank you so much for joining me on Mindful Mornings: Start Your Day with Peace and Clarity. If this resonated with you, please subscribe so we can keep building this peaceful morning ritual together. You've got this. Enjoy your day.
