  • Résumé

  • Hey there, and welcome to Mindful at Work. I'm so glad you're here today, taking a moment just for yourself in what I know can feel like an incredibly busy world. I see you, and I understand that right now, in February 2025, workplace stress and digital overwhelm might be feeling particularly intense.

    Let's take a breath together and create a small sanctuary of calm. Wherever you are - whether at your desk, in a quiet corner, or even in transit - find a comfortable position. Gently allow your shoulders to soften, your jaw to unclench. Close your eyes if that feels comfortable, or simply soften your gaze.

    Take a deep breath in through your nose, feeling the cool air entering, and a slow exhale through your mouth. Imagine each breath like a gentle wave washing away the mental clutter, creating space for clarity and focus. Breathe in possibility, breathe out tension.

    Today, we're practicing what I call the "Anchor and Expand" technique - a powerful way to reclaim your productivity and presence. Picture your mind like a vast ocean. Your breath is the steady anchor, keeping you grounded amidst swirling thoughts and external distractions.

    As you continue breathing naturally, start to notice your thoughts without judgment. Imagine each thought as a cloud passing across the sky of your mind. Some clouds are light, some dense, some quickly moving. You don't need to chase them or push them away. Simply observe.

    When you notice your attention drifting - and it will, that's completely normal - gently guide your focus back to your breath. This isn't about perfection; it's about practicing returning to your center, again and again. Each return is a small victory, a moment of mindful reconnection.

    Feel how this practice creates a spaciousness around your thoughts. You're not your thoughts; you're the awareness observing them. This subtle shift can transform how you approach work, helping you respond rather than react.

    As we complete our practice, take a final deep breath. Set an intention to carry this sense of calm and clarity into your next task. Maybe that means taking a mindful pause before answering an email, or approaching a challenging conversation with greater presence.

    Thank you for showing up for yourself today. If this practice resonated with you, please subscribe and share Mindful at Work with someone who might need it. Until next time, breathe, be kind to yourself, and remember: your attention is your most valuable resource.
