Five minutes
20 minutes
My name is Brian Martinez. We're in a stressful time. On top of the many stressors that we have, that could be 10, 20 to 30 normal stressors. We're dealing with the pandemic.
Stop the incessant thinking about the problems because there is only one moment, this moment, right?
Get into that state of relaxation because that's something that I think many of us struggle to do.
Let's close our eyes open, and I'm going to take you through this relaxation exercise for five minutes and then you will feel what I mean.
Just devoting 20 minutes like the doctor said would definitely reduce my stress significantly.
Sit back, relax, be mindful of everyone else in this room.
The best part of the presentation definitely was the relaxation part. This is something I'm gonna take home with me and practice because I feel like it was something that I needed and I think all of us needed. So that was the best part for me today.
