For When You’re Dreading the Appointment Ahead

You know you’re going.

You just wish you didn’t have to.

Your body may already be bracing for what comes next.

This guided breathing reset for caregivers uses a simple “before breath” to help you feel a little more steady before a hard appointment.

This 5 minute breathing exercise gives you a quiet moment before you have to walk through the door.

This episode is for moments when:

• You’re heading to an appointment you’ve been dreading.
• You feel tense before you even leave the house.
• You’re worried about what you might hear or have to take in.
• You need a little caregiver stress relief before being there for someone else.

Listening Instructions

• You can listen seated, lying down, or wherever you are.
• Eyes open or closed.
• Just five minutes to soften your breath and let your body settle.
