I See You
I see you. Maybe it’s 9 a.m., and you’re scrolling this at your desk while juggling emails, meetings, and the buzzing chaos of life. Or maybe it’s 6 p.m., and you’re in the grocery store, the kid in the cart is whining, your phone won’t stop dinging, and your feet are screaming from those heels you’ve been wearing since dawn.
You’re tired. You’re frazzled. You’re barely holding it together. And you’re still expected to somehow get dinner on the table (and maybe judge yourself if it’s not a perfectly balanced feast).
I see you, and I know how much you’re carrying.
Here’s one tiny shift to make this moment just 1% better:
Take three slow, deep breaths. Right now. Yes, even at your desk or while waiting in line. Inhale deeply through your nose, hold it for 4 seconds, and exhale slowly through your mouth for 4 seconds. Repeat twice more.
It might feel silly at first, but you’re breathing anyway, so why not make it intentional? Stick your phone in your pocket, let the chaos swirl around you for a moment, and just breathe.
Will it magically erase your to-do list or stop your kid’s meltdown? No. But it might help you feel calmer and more grounded—just enough to face the next thing with a little more presence. It also helps you regain control, putting you back in the driver's seat of your mind-body awareness.
And that shift matters.
Over time, these small moments of mindfulness add up. Today, it’s three breaths. Tomorrow, maybe it’s 15 minutes of quiet. Next week, you might even sit and savor your coffee without multitasking.
You deserve that.
You don’t have to overhaul your life all at once to feel better. Start with one small thing. A single degree of change today can set you on a completely different path tomorrow. This is a way to take back some control over what feels like an overly chaotic life. What have you got to lose?
