Just breathe

 

Welcome to this unseasonably warm Thursday, Baltimore. Hope you're enjoying the heat.

 

In a recent skill-sharing session with my colleagues here at Technical.ly, I offered a little something that helps my workflow: breathing. There’s this video that’s been out for some years now, "RELAX AND BREATHE: Do Nothing for 10 Minutes," and it’s just one of those things that I need in a workday.

 

Even if I can’t spare 10 minutes, I’m sure to practice some semblance of mindfulness with my breath. The geometric shapes expanding and contracting are rhythmic and put me in a very calm state. So I’ll just leave you with that this evening. Happy Breathing, and have a great weekend.
