This is just a very short few moments, too. Relax and reset. Just finding your position sitting or perhaps standing. I'm just feeling into the body, noticing any sensations in the feet the seed, perhaps in your hands and becoming aware of the breath coming in and out. Just welcoming yourself home for these few breaths, almost like drinking a glass of fresh water. That's the pause, breathing in and breathing out.
