But as cool as the idea of time travel is, we only have control over what’s happening right now— the present. Mindfulness—focusing on the present— means we experience the good things right in front of us! 1. Wherever you are, get still and take three deep breaths. Breathe in through your nose and breathe out through your mouth. Notice your breath moving in and out. 2. Look around for 5 things you can see and say them out loud. For example: “I see the sunshine coming in the window. I see my shoes …” 3.
