Pause episodes are designed to enhance the connection between your mind and body, promoting reset and presence in any circumstance. Today, we will focus on overcoming "test anxiety," the fear associated with exams. Through a variety of tricks and techniques, we will learn how to lower heightened anxiety and shift our perspective to view tests as setbacks, rather than defining factors of ourselves.

In this episode, I will assist you in your self-discovery journey, teaching you how to relax your tense body and mind. We will also explore ways to shift focus towards the aspects that are within our control, enabling us to show up in the best possible way.

In this episode, we will:

1. Learn effective relaxation techniques.
2. Identify and eliminate feelings of helplessness.
3. Cultivate mindfulness by training the mind to focus on more active thoughts.
4. Practice Box Breathing.
