  • Three Mindful Breaths
    Jan 25 2022

    When we become overwhelmed we have a tendency to take shallow breaths or hold our breath completely.  This is a quick reminder that your breath is your most valuable tool to release stress and calm the nervous system. Use these three mindful breaths as often as you need to relax your body. It may feel hard at first to inhale and exhale deeply but the more you practice the easier it will get.

  • Calming Beach Visualization for Anxiety and Stress
    Jan 12 2022

    The purpose of this visualization is to take you to a place that completely absorbs your attention and distracts you away from anxious thoughts. As you become entrenched in the scene you will deepen your state of relaxation and will notice physiological changes. Your muscles will become less tense, your heart rate will slow and your breathing will be even giving you an overall relaxed feeling.
