In this short YouTube segment, the presenter leads viewers through a 60‑second breathing meditation to create a mental reset for the day. After the meditation, the speaker assigns a reflective exercise: participants note recurring thoughts that arise, then categorize each using the RAP framework—Release (let go of completed thoughts), Park (defer future‑oriented thoughts), or Action (identify thoughts that require immediate response). The RAP method is presented as a quick, repeatable tool for managing mental clutter, setting intentions, and maintaining focus throughout the day. The video concludes with encouragement to apply RAP whenever feeling overwhelmed, wishing viewers a productive week.

Good morning, everyone. Here is your Moment of Yes for Monday, December 9th. All right, here we go. All right, so in order to, uh, to get yourself kind of like mentally reset, or just mentally set, or, uh, set those intentions for the day, um, I'm going to encourage you to take the next 30 seconds, 60 seconds, and we'll just do kind of a breathing meditation. You can close your eyes and we'll do it here for 60 seconds. Okay. And afterwards, I have an assignment for you. So, whatever thoughts come up, notice them and then let them go. We'll see what shows up. All right? 60, 90 seconds. I'll move the camera so you don't have to look at me. Here we go. All right. Welcome back. So what I want you to do now is I want you to notice the things that kept coming to your thoughts. Right. And if you were to list them down, the things that no matter you'd notice it, release it, maybe it kept coming back, or just all the different things that came. And maybe those are the things that are kind of sitting below the surface right now that are kind of driving your behaviors, driving your thoughts, driving your actions. So if we always have all these things that are bouncing around in our head, if we don't take time during the day to take inventory of them and process them, then that's that extra mental weight that that we carry around. So, if you were to make a list of all those items, right? All those thoughts that, that kind of distracting thoughts that are coming to you and for each one of them, you're going to put an R, an A, or a P next to them. You're going to WRAP them. The R is release. If it's a thought that keeps coming to you that's done, it's over, there's nothing else to do with it, R is release it. So, when you notice it pop up, you just let it go. There's nothing I need to do with you, release it, I let it go. P is for park, meaning, hey, that's a thought, that's a tomorrow thing, that's a later thing, that's a future thing, that's a next week thing, that's a tonight thing. We're going to park it. I'm going to give myself permission to not keep thinking about it today. I'm going to park it and take care of it later. The A, those we want to pay attention to. The A is we are going to take action, right? These are the thoughts that we need to take action of, right? These are the things that they're popping up and we can actually do something about them. We're going to take action with them. So, RAP— do I need to release it? Do I need to park it? Or do I need to take action with that idea right now? Those are the ones we want to pay the most attention to. So, when we notice ourselves bogged down during the day, give yourself 30 seconds, 60 seconds. We're going to RAP it. Pay attention to what's going on. Release them, park them, or take action. That's your moment of yes for today. Have an awesome week, everyone.
