The Pause

A 60-second reset to return to yourself.

1️⃣ Ground

Plant your feet. Soften your jaw and shoulders. Feel the surface beneath you.

2️⃣ Breathe

Inhale through your nose for 4. Exhale through your mouth for 6. Repeat three rounds.

3️⃣ Notice

What do you feel right now—without fixing it? Let your breath name it and soften it.

4️⃣ Choose

Pick one word to embody today—calm, clear, rooted, or open. Carry it into your next moment.
