100 Days to be Happy: Breathing

Breathe in... Breathe out... Repeat.
Breathe in… Breathe out… Repeat.

Yes, I know it’s an odd thing to be happy about, but it’s very much on my mind today.

It’s raining, which always puts me in a sour mood, the baby keeps screeching no matter what I do and I’m so tired that all I want to do is crash out for a couple of hours… but I can’t because every time I try, something wakes me.

So I remind myself to breathe.

IN…

Hold it… one…two…three…four…five…

OUT…

IN…

Hold it… one…two…three…four…five…

OUT…

IN…

Hold it… one…two…three…four…five…

OUT...

And reminding myself that I can breathe calms me down and makes me a little happier.

…I’d be happier still if the sun came out, but any port in a storm…

I’ve done this exercise five times today – it’s been one of those kinds of days!
