- Pause: Before starting a new task, or when you feel rushed, pause for just a few breaths.
- See & Feel: Look around you. Notice one thing you can see, one thing you can feel.
- Ask: Silently ask yourself: “Am I really being here and now?”
- Breathe: Take one slow, deep breath. Let it anchor you in the present. Breathe in "here", breath out "now".
- Proceed: Continue with your task, but carry that breath and awareness with you.
