Clarify Priorities in 3 Breaths

Pause and gain clarity on immediate priorities through an ultra short refelection exercise

Welcome. In this micro-practice we will learn how to clarify your purpose in the short space of three breaths. This practice can help you begin to identify your current priorities, goals, and purpose in the short space of the practice itself. Let me share with you a brief instruction, and then we can practice together. Again, this micropractice has done in just three breaths.

On the first breath, taking a long, deep inhalation and anchoring your attention on the sensation of breathing in and out. On the second breath, taking another long, deep inhalation and as you exhale, relaxing your body one small measure. And on the third breath, taking a long, deep inhalation and asking yourself what's most important right now. So let's try the practice together. First breath, take a long, deep inhalation.

And anchoring your attention on the sensation of the breath as the air comes in, and then out of your body. On the second breath, taking a long, deep inhalation. And as you exhale, relaxing your body one small measure. And then finally on the third breath, taking another long, deep inhalation. And as you exhale, asking yourself, what's most important right now.

That's our three breath micro-practice on clarifying your purpose. Thank you for your practice. And we hope this helps you on your mindfulness journey.
