easy, five minute meditation

SLICE LEMON

• sniff the fruit
• notice the texture of the rind

SQUEEZE LEMON INTO A GLASS OF WATER, SPARKLING IF POSSIBLE

• watch the lemon juice swirl into the water
• close your eyes
• take a sip
• take a swig
• taste it

FIND A SPOT OUTSIDE, TO SIT DOWN

• set down the glass
• relax your shoulders
• breathe deeply a few times
• close your eyes
• feel the air. is there a breeze? is the air cool, warm, hot?
• what do you smell?
• what do you hear?
• open your eyes
• do you need to stretch?
• do you need to take a few more deep breaths?
• finish up your glass of water

STAND UP, STRETCH AGAIN, BREATHE AGAIN

NEXT?
