Changing our hectic ways

I was running late and waiting for the elevators (I was on the 73rd floor). Instead of allowing my impatient nature to take over and drive me crazy, I put my right hand on my heart, closed my eyes and breathed, deeply. And it felt sooo good. I saw an opportunity to check in with myself and just breathe.

What if we changed our hectic ways and transformed those \”unwanted\” waiting times into much needed breaks to breathe and tune in. What if being stuck in traffic jam becomes an opportunity to call someone we haven\’t talked to for too long or have a Traffic Power Jam (which is basically sing your heart out to music that uplifts you). What if we could see the magic in those little (or big) changes) What if someone somewhere is looking after us and noticing that we haven\’t taken a deep breath for a long time? That our muscles are sore and we need to pause just for one moment and exhale? What if…

Any other ideas??? How do you remind yourself to breathe? How do you center yourself and create more balance in your life?
