Effect on Emotions

• I've done mindfulness as part of accident recovery therapy. There was one thing that stood out to me. It was called wiseman theory.
• You have the emotional brain on one end and the logical brain on the other. They are two sides of the spectrum.
• To get to the wiseman, it's somewhere in the middle. It's a mix of emotion and logic.

Thoughts on Breathing

• Breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth. That typical yoga breathing is where I try to be.
• My coordinator, Nikol was on the plane with me yesterday and I was trying to get all kinds of deadlines done. She was suggesting I breathe, and that was helpful.

Suggested Resources

• Book: The Untethered Soul by Michael A. Singer
• App: Calm

Bullying Story

• There are many stories, but one that stands out is from an early job where I faced inappropriate comments and a lack of trust in my work.
• Looking back, I wonder how I would’ve responded if I had the mindset I have now.
• Mindfulness has taught me to accept where you are in the moment—that every experience is part of growth.
• The real shift comes from knowing when to speak up, when to listen, and how to move forward with intention.
