Mindful Breathing & Mind Gaps: Day 3 of My Mindfulness Journey
On Day 3 of my mindfulness journey in San Angelo, Texas, I’m learning to create “mind gaps”—intentional pauses to notice where my mind wanders. Through gentle breathing exercises and journaling every thought, I’m discovering the power of naming my worries, letting them go, and making space for presence and self-compassion—even on the busiest days.
