Most Influential PersonAlan Taylor (My advisor)Effect on EmotionsI'm
very logical and I think being mindful and thinking out every situation
as to what it is, what it could be, where it could go, helps me come up
with an appropriate and emotional mindset.Thoughts on BreathingI
do a lot of yoga so breathing is always important. I make sure I
breathe and I will think about my breathing as I'm running, during my
moving meditation as well. So breathing plays a big role. Anytime I get
really stressed out or run into some sort of hurdle I need to overcome,
I'm always making sure I take a deep breath. I find breath to be very
calming and centering.Suggested ResourcesBook: Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less by Greg McKeownApp: Naturescape (It plays nature sounds)Advice for Newbie
I'd
start with taking a few minutes each day and I would make it first
thing in the morning or right before you go to bed; those tend to be the
easiest I think. Just take a little bit of time for yourself each day
and reflect upon your day or focus on your breath. Do just something
small, like baby steps, to get into a way of thinking about how you can
be mindful and how breath or taking moments like that can improve your
day.
