      • Effect on Emotions
      • Like many people, my emotions often come as a jumble, rarely clear or
        • simple except for love, which feels pure. Most emotions take time for
        me to understand.
      • Mindfulness, especially through journaling, helps me
        • sort through my emotions. By reflecting honestly on my role in a situation, I stop blaming others and start seeing solutions.
      • Sometimes it takes days, but by the end, I feel clearer, more in control, and able to turn difficult emotions into something positive.
        • Thoughts on Breathing
        • When I’m out in nature, I intentionally slow down and take everything
          • in; the sound of a bird, a bug on a leaf, a bud on a tree.
        • Sometimes I’ll stop completely, even if I am with someone, and just listen or look in silence.
        • During those moments, I breathe deeply through my nose, filling my lungs and feeling my chest expand. That simple act of breathing helps me feel present, grounded, and genuinely happy to be alive.

            • Bullying Story
            • When I was 12, I came home 30 minutes late from sledding and
              • was grounded for the entire winter break—no questions asked.
            • My father, shaped by a strict military background, enforced rules without
              • room for dialogue. He acted from fear and a need for control.
            • Looking back, I realize a mindful conversation could have taught me
              • punctuality with compassion.
            • That experience shaped how I led early in my career—efficient but often lacking emotional connection.
