Thank you so much, starting my day was very hectic today, lots of chores prior to leaving my house for work. A very loud and powerful storming raging outside to add to the stress. The practice helped me re-set and ease into my day.

I love the idea that getting distracted is the practice. Just seeing that, trying to not see it as failure and returning to the breath. You can’t hear that enough
