Get grounded pranayama practice
Whether you are trying to make a major career decision or simply plan you day, it’s easy to get stuck in a pattern of compulsive thinking. Whenever you feel like your mind starts to spin, try simple grounding breath to help you discharge excessive mental energy and make you feel more anchored. This week start your day with 7 minutes of grounding breath and see if it makes a difference in how your day unfolds.
Fundamentally, yoga is about settling the vortex of the mind and eliminating some of that incessant mental noise. Only when the mind settles, says sage Patanjali in his Yoga Sutras, can you see yourself for who you are and the world around you for what it is.
