This is a 30-second micro-reset designed for moments when your mind is spiraling, your nervous system feels overwhelmed, or you need regulation fast. Hand-to-heart grounding + a 5-second inhale / 5-second exhale pattern brings your system back into balance quickly — without pressure, without overthinking, and without long meditation. Use this anytime during the day. Put it on repeat. Let your breath bring you back. Breath Pattern: • Inhale 5 seconds • Exhale 5 seconds • Repeat for 3 rounds Phrases: “I’m right here.” “I’m safe enough to breathe.” “My body softens… just a little.” “This moment is enough. I can begin again.” If this helped, you can try the longer versions too (60-sec, 90-sec, 2-min resets). These small micro-moments create real physiological shifts — one breath at a time.
