Two Exercises

The two exercises that I found to be most beneficial are the subtle mind practice and the breathing exercises. Both of these practices have helped me to remain calm when I was having to be at the hospital with my cousin last weekend and while I was at work dealing with angry customers. Both of these can be practiced anytime and anywhere. They both help to focus on stopping the continual flow of thoughts and shallow breathing that comes from an agitated state. I know when I use these two techniques I can feel the anger or agitation slipping away and my body seems to return to being in balance. When I complete the exercise I am able to return to work or handle a situation with better clarity.
