    • Effect on Emotions
      • Mindfulness lets me take a step back from my emotions. 
        I can take a beat, take a breath, and see what's arising.
      • Rather than just becoming reactive, it gives me that pause to say where is that coming from. 
         
      • I'm not always perfect at it, and I don't think humans can be perfect at it, but mindfulness helps me not to become overwhelmed by my emotions. It gives me a tool to work with them. 
        Thoughts on Breathing
        • I have a breath practice. I like to start my day by focusing on my breathing, which clears my mind. It helps me to be very present and to ground me.
        • Even if you only have 5 minutes, if you can take that 5 minutes and focus on your breath, you can have a better day. 
        • Bullying Story
          • I've experienced bullying quite a lot. I came to identify it. I think the more people practice compassion and mindfulness, the less bullying there will be.
          • Bullies have a wound that they haven't addressed. The thing about a bully is that they are only powerful if they are drawing power from bullying.
