A tiny exercise for your next shopping tour for Christmas gifts.
Stop wherever you are in the store or on the laptop at home, and take three slow breaths.
On the first breath: Feel your feet on the ground
On the second breath: Drop your shoulders
On the third breath: Think “Baby steps, I choose one thing at a time”
Then, look at your list and pick just the next single item to focus on.
That’s it - just three breaths to reset when you feel overwhelmed. You can do this between stores while standing in line or whenever you need a moment to recenter.
