Greetings all!
I hope you and your loved are staying healthy and keeping calm in these uncertain and alarming times. Here is a technique that might help you center yourself from Margaret Townsend (as read in the June-2019 issue of Real Simple magazine):
It’s
easier to respond to whatever the day may bring in a more balanced and
open-minded way if you spend a moment centering yourself. Let your belly
soften and take three gentle breaths into it. Then put your hands on the
center of your chest. Inhale slowly and imagine breathing in from the bottom of
your feet through the top of your head and into your heart. Exhale and feel
your ribs soften downward under your hands.
After
a few repetitions, ask yourself, “How do I want to respond to people and
situations today?” Keep breathing this way for one to three minutes and notice
a feeling of centeredness, clarity, or ease.
Take care!
I can see how this can disrupt the fear and bring calmness to the soul. I have been meditating more often then ever before, for myself but also for the world, because that would be my investment in it to bring peace.
