The following exercise can be done pretty much anywhere anytime. It will bring calm and peace even if you are feeling over stressed. Its easy and quick to do.
Choose a relaxing position either sitting in a chair or lying down. Just start to notice your breath. Don't be tempted to alter your breathing, or take a deep breath. You don't need to actually 'do' anything – all you are doing is taking notice of the way you are already breathing.
Perhaps you can feel the air as it passes through your nostrils and enters your nose. Pay attention to the air entering and filling your lungs. You can observe how your stomach rises automatically. Then feel the air being released from your lungs and passing out through your nose.
It is quite common for people to feel irritated for the first couple of minutes, but ignore it and just continue to observe your breath. No problem.
Different thoughts will enter your head but each time they do, leave them and return your attention to your breathing.
Just keep noticing your breath.
Continue for about 5 mins - it's as easy as that.
All you are doing is being aware of the moment - right here, right now.
Keep bringing yourself back to this moment.
Do this throughout the day, whenever you have the time.
It is great for dispelling negative thought patterns and will bring a feeling of peace and harmony.
BE HAPPY x
