THE SIMPLE ACT OF BREATHING 30 SECONDS TO RESET YOUR LIFE

BY KEALAH PARKINSON

B

ig exhale! Once again, I’m at my laptop computer—this time, set up in the kitchen so I can pull some parenting multi-tasking while hubby plugs away on some invoicing in his home office. We tend to trade off in shifts like this whenever we both work from home, which is a blessing … & a curse.

Big 3 is at it again (see yesterday’s Day 14 post on Meltdown Mode monsters). Today’s terror is thanks to his desire for orange juice— which I’m happy to provide … with parameters that he doesn’t want instilled. Yes, you may have juice, son. No, you may not drink it on the couch in front of Paw Patrol without a lid. So, Big 3 gets a choice: Lidded cup on the couch or unlidded at the kitchen table. Meltdown.

We settle eventually on no lid at the kitchen table, but he wants to fill it up all the way. This is also not an option. Now the choices are half a cup of juice in a cup without a lid at the kitchen table or … no juice. Meltdown! I brave all the rationalities (“I’ll be vewwy careful!” almost sucks me in) & eventually we are at a stalemate. I pull out my go-to: counting to 5. At the end of the count, I get to choose. And the options are now: Drink the juice that I’m giving you or go to your room to calm down for 5 minutes.

Thank God he drank the juice! I sighed involuntarily as I realized I was holding my breath. And, cursor blinking on my laptop screen, I instantly knew this post would be all about breathing.

Specifically, it’s about 3 conscious breaths—a classic mindfulness technique to reset your perspective in under a minute. With 3 simple, slow intentional breaths—a long inhale & a deepened exhale with first your belly rising & then your chest followed by their deflation again; all your concentration on the simple act of breathing—you can still your nerves, send the right signals to your brain that fight-or-flight can safely end, & then access higher-level thinking to consciously problem-solve, rather than emotionally (over-)reacting. Whenever I remember to use this trick, its results are nothing short of miraculous.

And in the 2 weeks I’ve been journeying through mini-mindfulness, I have used this technique many times. When my husband & I bickered over who was making breakfast while the TV blared monotonous kids’ songs loudly & repeatedly, I tuned it all out by centering with 3 conscious breaths. When we delved into a political debate on date night & began raising our voices to compete in attempted conversion to our differing sides, I let it go with 3 conscious breaths. As my teething baby fusses right now & I nervously look at the clock with concerns about making dinner … ah, 3 conscious breaths bring a soft smile to my lips.

I have, however, discovered a time when this technique does not work. While driving in the rain this morning, I tried to lessen my tension with 3 conscious breaths. But—fail!—I was clearly not able to focus solely on my breathing as I gripped the steering wheel, checked the speedometer, adjusted the windshield wiper tempo & simultaneously kept an eye on the passing semi-truck. Alas, everything has its limitations.

Day 14 Mini-Mindfulness Tool: 3 Conscious Breaths.

While this trick works for centering in nearly any situation, I highly recommend reading the process for letting go of negative thoughts & emotions outlined in Thich Nhat Hanh’s book Anger.
