A quick "brain break" for you, as my kids' school likes to call it:

Sitting up tall, take a slow breath in and a long breath out. Continue breathing until you can breath in to a count of 4 and breathe out to a count of 4. Try a few breaths like that, and then add a pause for a count of 2-4 in between your inhale and exhale. 5 rounds of counting your breath, then see how you feel! Happy Tuesday :)

"What can you do with 5 good minutes?

5 good minutes of:

-pushups is a solid workout
-sprints will leave you winded
-writing can deliver 1 good page
-reading can finish an insightful article
-meditation can reset your mood

You don’t need more time—just a little focused action."

Love this :) Stay focused out there with all this at-home time!

Check out this great article on how CA firefighters are using mindfulness as a way to prevent and cope with the daily stress of their jobs.

The deadly threats of fighting California’s wildfires go beyond the smoke and the flames for firefighters. Other, equally dangerous perils often exact heavy toll on the bodies and minds of first responders.
