PBH 436 M4.6: Reflective Exercise

Three-Minute Pause

Reset your Mind: If you've ever felt lost or directionless in your life, you probably know how hard it can be to make progress on anything. When you have clarity around your goals and priorities, it is easier to move towards what you want out of life. This week's three-minute pause gives you the opportunity to quiet the mind and gain a bit of introspection. This exercise is just one step forward as life never slows down and isn't always clear-cut, but if you can learn to quiet the mind for just three minutes, your eyes will be opened to just how useful this exercise can be. 

Let's Begin!

Find yourself a comfortable place, set aside three minutes, and view the video below.
