In this brief podcast episode, the host guides listeners through a one‑minute morning somatic reset. The practice highlights the automatic physiological reaction that occurs within the first few minutes of waking—such as a phone buzz or a lingering thought—and invites listeners to notice the brief gap between that stimulus and their response. By taking a conscious breath in through the nose and exhaling with a sense of power and peace, the listener creates a pause that becomes the space where choice resides. The host encourages using this pause before reacting to any pull of the day, sharing love, and inviting listeners to spread the practice and subscribe for daily two‑minute peace sessions. Interspersed between the guidance are commercial spots for Capella University, KFC’s $10 Bucket of the Day, LuckyHands gaming, and James Hardie siding, each delivered by separate voice actors.

Welcome. I'm so glad you're here. Something happens to you within the first 5 minutes of being awake. Your phone buzzes, or you remember what's on your calendar, or a thought about yesterday shows up uninvited, and your body reacts before your mind even catches up. That's normal. It's not a flaw. But there is a space between what happens to you and what you do next. And this morning, I want you to notice it's there. You don't have to fill it in right away. You don't have to have an opinion about the day yet. Just notice the gap. That gap is where your choice actually lives. Not in the reaction, not in the story you tell yourself about the reaction, but in the quiet second before either one. Please take a breath in through your nose as you remind yourself you always have that moment to pause before reacting. Hold and exhale with the feeling of power and peace that brings. Today, when something pulls at you, try this: pause just for a breath before you respond. Not because you have to get it right, just because you can. I'm sending you so much love. If there's someone that comes to mind that can use a little peace, Please share this with them, and please subscribe to keep returning to peace in under 2 minutes a day. Thank you so much for being here with me today.
