One Minute Still

Pause where you are.

Let your hands rest. Soften your shoulders. Unclench your jaw.

Feel the support beneath your body.

Breathe in gently through your nose.

Breathe out slowly, allowing your body to settle.

Again, breathe in.

And breathe out, a little longer.

Notice one clear sensation. The weight of your feet. The touch of your hands. The quiet movement of your breath.

If your mind wanders, simply return to that sensation.

Take one more easy breath in.

Let it flow out.

Carry this small moment of stillness with you as you continue.
