Slowing down also lets you be more mindful, deliberate, and fully present. When we slow down, we are giving ourselves the opportunity to reacquaint ourselves to our natural rhythms. We let go of the āfast forwardā stress, and allow our bodies to remain centered and grounded

Silence your mind. What we are worrying about has not happened yet, thus worry is a self-created state of needless fear.
If you really want to brighten someoneās day, do the unexpected. The effect could last a lifetime.
Reminds me of todayās morning walk. I offered to help an elderly woman with her bags - it wasnāt much but the fact that she didnāt expect my help made her extremely happy. She couldnāt stop giving complimentsā¦made my morning a little bit better <3

To prepare for a wipeout, it's crucial to take a deep, diaphragmatic breath to maximize oxygen intake, helping stay calm and avoid panic. Breathing from the diaphragm (rather than the neck) is more efficient, and practicing yoga can improve this technique. During a wipeout, maintaining calm helps switch from the "fight or flight" (sympathetic) response to a "rest and digest" (parasympathetic) state, which reduces oxygen consumption and prolongs breath-hold time. Box breathing is a useful technique for staying calm and promoting faster recovery after a wipeout.
