Sometimes in the winter when the outside temperature is below 20 F, I pull on an appropriate coat heading outside for a walk. 

I find myself tensed up as if to fight off the cold. Then I remember that my coat is rated for this temperature. I relax my shoulders. Shake my arms. Embrace the joy of a brisk winter walk.

We find ourselves at times in life tensed. Our shoulders tight. Hands in a fist. Perhaps leaning forward. Perhaps abdomen tight.

Then we inhale deeply. Shrug and drop our shoulders. Move our arms. Allow the belly to expand and contract with breath.

We relax into our day.
