How to Reduce Overwhelm: The “Take 5” Exercise
You can use the Take 5 technique anytime you want to settle an overstimulated mind — it’s a sweet exhale for your brain and heart.
Mindfulness is a lot more than seated, eyes closed meditation.
Some mindfulness exercises can be done with your eyes open, while walking, or even with other people. In fact, mindfulness offers us an enormous treasure chest of tools and strategies to help untangle anxious feelings so we can access calm and mental clarity.
Today, let’s try one together. It’s called Take 5. Here’s how it works:
- Hold your left hand out. Put your right index finger on your wrist.
- Slide your finger up the thumb while inhaling through the nose.
- Slide your finger back down to the wrist, while exhaling through the month.
- Repeat these steps on your other 4 fingers. Or do both hands. Enjoy!
You can use Take 5 at work, before you open Facebook, after you open Facebook. Anytime you want to settle an overstimulated mind — it’s a sweet exhale for your brain and heart.

Just a small sample of the life-changing 5-star reviews we get on a daily basis.
Vidyamala’s tips on catching anger as it’s happening or about to happen are great - clear, practical, and doable.

The little talks before the meditations are priceless. It's like I've found my peeps. The topics, the quotes, the goals—it all makes so much sense to me, things I want to be thinking and learning about. Most importantly, the meditations are kindness-centered, which I love. It feels like a new way to approach meditation.
- Lauren
Incredible, easy to navigate app. I would highly recommend this app to anyone who wishes to reduce stress and anxiety or simply as an aid to improve overall mental health.

So calm and soothing. I love the new bundle with Kelly Boys, she’s brilliant!

Better than Headspace. I've had the paid version of both apps, and I must say I enjoy this one better.
- Gina, Plus+ Member
I am very new to meditation, and am so happy that my first introduction to it has been through this app
The first session was fantastic. I feel safe. And supported. Almost like having someone helping me through my difficult time. I’m very grateful for this app.
