Moving your body impacts how you feel. You can listen to the Pause at link in bio or try the practice below:
Find a comfortable position where you feel supported and at ease. Allow your eyes to soften or close as you give yourself a break in your day.

Give yourself a moment to truly step out and pause. Breathe slowly. If you want, as you breathe in, say to yourself, “I know I’m breathing in.” And as you’re breathing out, say to yourself, “I know I’m breathing out.” Breathing in, “I know I’m breathing in.” Breathing out, “I know I’m breathing out.”

Notice what emotions are present right now. How are you feeling at this moment? Take a moment to bring your attention to your shoulders and allow your shoulders to move back and in, giving room for the front of your body.

Imagine you have a string on your collar bone that is allowing your heart to lift a little. Notice if this changes your breathing or how you are feeling at this moment.

Notice what it is like to turn your palms open, allowing your shoulders to move back a little more, giving even more space for your heart. Notice your breathing. Notice your thinking. Notice any emotions shifting.

Lift your arms up overhead, lengthening your spine. Allow your heart to open even more. See what it is like to gaze up.

Lower your arms and breathe slowly. Lift your arms up over your head again, finding more length in your spine. Allow your heart to shine.

Release your arms and notice any shifts in your breathing, your thinking, and/or your emotional state.

Put a soft smile on your face. Just let yourself be. Notice how a soft smile can change your thoughts and feelings.

Stretch in a way that feels good as you get ready to return to your day.

As you move throughout the day and find yourself stuck in ways of thinking that don’t serve you, see if you can create a mind-body connection to change how you think and feel.

Make time for play with this week’s Pause. Liste

Make time for play with this week’s Pause. Listen at link in bio or read here: Find a comfortable position where you feel supported. Give yourself this break and allow yourself to rest.

Breathe slowly and gently place a soft smile on your face. Notice how your mind, body, and heart feel when you smile softly.

Remember the last time you really played. (Pause) How old were you? (Pause) Where were you? (Pause) Were you alone or with others? (Pause) What were you doing? (Pause) How did you feel? (Pause).

Take a moment to remember how it is to play. See it, feel it, and experience it right now. Play is essential for our mental, physical, and emotional health. It is where time is suspended and there’s no goal but to just enjoy and be. Breathe slowly and notice how it feels to remember how to play.

When you are ready, stretch your body anyway that feels good.

If you can, take a moment right now and schedule five to ten minutes in your calendar to play. Then make this precious time to play a priority in your life going forward.

Have fun!
