In a world where constant activity is promoted embracing microbreaks is a but subtle rebellion and you all know if you have read my previous post that I am a rebel. it's about recognizing the importance of self-care in the midst of chaos. experiment with different techniques and watch how small moments add up to a more balanced and productive life. Remember the art of mindfulness lies in the intention and not the duration. Be intentional about what you say, what you do, what you pheel. take a breath, pause and reclaim control of your day. I love y'all.
