- Find a Quiet Space: Find a comfortable and quiet place where you won't be disturbed for the next five minutes.
- Sit Comfortably: Sit down in a chair or on the floor with your back straight and your hands resting on your lap. You can also lie down if that's more comfortable for you.
- Close Your Eyes: Close your eyes gently and take a few deep breaths to relax. Inhale deeply through your nose and exhale slowly through your mouth.
- Focus on Your Breath: Pay attention to your breath as it goes in and out. Let go of any tension with each exhalation.

- Express Thanks: Silently say "Thank you" for each of these things. Feel the gratitude in your heart as you do so.
- Return to Breath: After expressing gratitude for each of the three things, return your focus to your breath for a few moments.
