Your busy work schedule may make things seem hectic today. Since you may have much to do, you could become overwhelmed by your responsibilities. Calming your mind today might help you slow down enough to get everything taken care of and also to feel more at peace with yourself and your life. Perhaps you can take a few minutes each hour to become attuned to your breath. While breathing deeply, you may want to picture all the tensions in your life that affect you, and as you exhale imagine them dissipating into nothingness. Using your breath in this way could make your day seem to go by faster and with greater ease. You might even notice that your work schedule no longer seems as frenetic.
Our breath is a wonderful tool for stilling our minds. Even when our lives seem chaotic, our situation is most often a product of the ways in which our minds react to our external world. As we bring breath into our bodies, we are inhaling prana, or life energy, which allows us to focus our thoughts and at the same time energize our bodies and mind so that we may accomplish our tasks. Once our minds become peaceful, we begin to realize that there is very little in life that is an emergency, and we become better able to prioritize our responsibilities as a result. By making use of the power of your breath to quiet your mind today, it will be easier to concentrate on your tasks without becoming weighed down by them.
