    Breathe. Stop, take a moment, breathe. In through the nose, hold for four, out through the mouth, hold for four.

      Mindfulness is more important now than ever.

      “You should sit in meditation for twenty minutes every day - unless you’re too busy; then you should sit for an hour.”

        Gotta keep doing it, I generally spend five to ten minutes just focusing on breathing.

        And you really have to try to focus just on your breathing, really feel and monitor the air flowing into, then out of your lungs.

        Edit: oh, and do it at a steady pace, otherwise you’ll end up hyperoxygenating your brain and feeding the anxiety (ask me how I know…).

    honestly, just live free without feeling like you need to build anything within the system. stay alive day to day, and help those in need when you can

    Cut down the news from things going on in your country to your state. If you live if a blue state like me, there’s less bad local news compared to the country at large.
