Between balancing a career, maintaining a personal life, and the stress and anxiety of living through a pandemic, women often find themselves facing a never-ending to-do list. Even with all the resources of modern convenience, they are more stressed and overwhelmed than ever. In Don' t Forget to Breathe, psychotherapist Shonda Moralis reminds women that they' re not superheroes-and that' s OK. Rooted in her personal experience as a business owner and working mom, Moralis coaches readers through sixty "mindfulness breaks" and shares how to: Breathe to promote calmness and awareness with meditation. For example, while waiting - at the grocery store, while your computer is loading, every time you reach for your phone - try redirecting your attention to your breath. Notice when your attention wanders. Be yourself and build confidence. Reach for success by setting - and conquering - realistic goals. Everyone can take five minutes to reset, refocus, and achieve balance with a mindful break. This is a much-needed reminder of the essential to-do list item we often overlook: don' t forget to breathe.
"A healthy salve of compassionate encouragement to help women step back from hectic, overloaded agendas. . . . Readers wanting to find simple ways to bring mindfulness into their lives will find this empathetic, enjoyable guide to be a beneficial tool. "--Publishers Weekly "This book reminded me of my dad' s advice: Steer into the skid. Shonda Moralis is amazing. She knows that balance doesn' t come from a magic eraser that leaves you ohming in some silent, gardenia-scented space; it comes from paying attention to the chaos and clutter, to what' s happening, to what matters. Plus, she lets you meditate while you' re drinking coffee, so there' s that, too. "--Catherine Newman, author of Waiting for Birdy and Catastrophic Happiness "[This book] beautifully captures the importance of self-compassion for all women. Rather than adding one more thing to our to do lists , Moralis helps us cultivate a wise and powerful way of being as we move through each moment of our day. "--Shauna Shapiro, PhD, professor of counseling psychology and author of Good Morning, I Love You "This book is what we all need. Apply these practices and start being present in your busy life--and find joy. "--Lisa Druxman, founder of FIT4MOM "We all need that friend who believes in us and stands with us as we pursue our dreams. In [this book] Shonda is that priceless friend. With powerful, yet gentle words she reminds us of the necessity of balance, helps us examine our dreams, and inspires us to breathe in the midst of life. "--Rachel Marie Martin, author of The Brave Art of MotherhoodPraise for Breathe, Mama, Breathe A Parents Magazine Mom Must-Read A National Parenting Product Award (NAPPA) Winner "Moralis' s suggestions strike an effective and empowering note. "--Publishers Weekly "With more than 60 mindful breaks that help moms tune into their own well-being, you will also learn the benefits of meditation and how to quickly and easily master it. Take five and reset. "--Washington Parent "Learn the basics of daily meditation and the ways it can help you keep your cool in this how-to guide. "--Pregnancy Newborn
