Each of us has had moments were we struggle to be calm.
At times you may feel pressure to correct something or to complete something ahead of schedule.
In these moments it's easy to think of only the past or the future.
When this is happening you may find yourself holding your breath and thinking you need to hurry up and fix your mistake or you need to be an overachiever and get further ahead.
Possibly you feel the world is spinning out of control and you are in complete chaos. Maybe you start to feel there's no time to do everything you need to do.
When you find yourself feeling this way, why not ask yourself if you can be calm?
Why not implement a practice of noticing when you are feeling pressure and feeling anxious?
Then ask yourself if you can practice breathing deeply and find your calm center.
As you practice your breath, look up from what you are doing and observe what is around you.
Then, as you work to correct the past or work to get ahead, remind yourself the importance of the moment you are in, the joy of having the moment and being patient with it.
Practice your calm.
