Computer Mindfulness

Set a timer on your computer to beep or ring every hour. When it rings, stop all your activities, bring your attention to your breath and notice if you are breathing deep or shallow, into your abdomen or chest area. Spend approx 2-3 minutes just observing your breath, just as it is, without any interference. After the time has passed, return to your activitiy but remain aware that you are doing so. This mindfulness practice, if practiced daily throughout the day will help to calm and still your mind and de-stress your body.
