Mindful Breathing

Happy Aloha Monday!

Just a quick update today – It was a busy weekend with having my chemo port placed on Friday and my egg retrieval procedure today. Both went as well as possible and I’m so thankful the recovery has been really smooth.

I’ve been finding myself needing to take more “mindful minutes” to myself in the past week since starting chemo next week has me a bit anxious. In this video, I’ll teach you my favorite mindful breathing exercise to stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system when you only have a minute or two during your busy day.

Feel free to add in your own affirmation with each breath or you could even do some EFT tapping as well! Some of my favorite affirmations are:

  • I am grounded & safe.
  • I am loved and cared for deeply.
  • I choose to live with joy and love.
  • I am enough.
  • I can heal my body.

P.S. June 1st means it’s time to do your monthly breast self-exam!! For more info on how and why to do a self-exam, check out my earlier post here. #EarlyDetectionSavesLives
