Are you looking for a simple and effective way to calm racing thoughts and gain a pause in your day, which can help you transition to sleep at night quicker? Look no further! In this episode, Dr. Kimber shares valuable techniques that can help you achieve just that. Here are three key takeaways for you:

🌟 Track Your Breath: Bring focus and mindfulness into your daily routine by paying attention to your inhalation and exhalation. Deepening your breath and repeating this activity three times can work wonders in training your mind to stop thinking and transition into the ability to calm your mind.

🌟 Practice the Box Breath: A powerful technique that activates the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting relaxation and better sleep. Inhale, hold, exhale, and hold at the bottom. Repeat this cycle several times, experimenting with different durations and counts.

🌟 Be Present with Your Senses: Mindfulness can be practiced throughout the day by fully engaging with your five senses. Take notice of temperature, smell, taste, sight, touch, and even distant or nearby sounds. Embrace the present moment and nurture a deeper connection with yourself and your surroundings.
