Concept

Breathe, move, act

A two-step way out of paralysis: breathe until you are back in your senses, then take one physical step.

Revised Español

What it is

When you notice you’re frozen, overthinking or overwhelmed:

  1. Take slow, deep breaths until you’re only inside your five senses.
  2. Take a single step, in any direction. Physically move from wherever you are.

It’s physical on purpose. The breath comes first. The step can be any step. The point is to act.
