Between balancing a career, maintaining a personal life, and the stress and anxiety of living through a pandemic, women often find themselves facing a never-ending to-do list. Even with all the resources of modern convenience, they are more stressed and overwhelmed than ever. In
Don't Forget to Breathe, psychotherapist Shonda Moralis reminds women that they're not superheroes--and that's OK. Rooted in her personal experience as a business owner and working mom, Moralis coaches readers through sixty "mindfulness breaks" and shares how to:
- Breathe to promote calmness and awareness with meditation. For example, while waiting--at the grocery store, while your computer is loading, every time you reach for your phone--try redirecting your attention to your breath. Notice when your attention wanders.
- Be yourself and build confidence.
- Reach for success by setting--and conquering--realistic goals.
Everyone can take five minutes to reset, refocus, and achieve balance with a mindful break. This is a much-needed reminder of the essential to-do list item we often overlook:
don't forget to breathe.
