When I was at my lowest, even doing something for three minutes felt almost impossible. Almost. But even at my worst, I could do something good for three minutes. Three minutes of anything that could get me out of my most negative thoughts, that could break my stuckness. To this day, whenever I’m feeling out of sorts and disconnected with my true self, I take a moment. I consciously redirect my attention to doing something that I know can help me regroup. All it takes is three good minutes.

Three good minutes of standing with your feet on the grass, eyes closed, hands on your heart.

Three good minutes of listening to a song that takes you straight ‘home’, standing, swaying, feeling. 

Three good minutes of sitting on a park bench, watching the world go by, listening to the birds, the trees, life. 

Three good minutes of finding the suns light in your home, standing in it and letting it drench your face. 

Three good minutes of your feet in a body of water – the ocean, a creek, a puddle. 

Not every one of these needs to be done everyday, it’s more a matter of choosing three good minutes in your day to do something that brings you home. That gives you that feeling of, Ahh, there I am. Three good minutes where you find yourself, say hi to yourself and feel good that you’re still there. Because three good minutes a day is better than no minutes a day. It’s better than nothing, isn’t it? It may seem small and insignificant, but in practice, it’s the small and insignificant done consistently that makes the big, significant shifts.
