Taking Breath Breaks

Mindless activity swirls around me inviting mechanical busyness and tempting me to get lost in meaningless motion.  I choose, however, to pause, breathe, be here, now, and remind myself to live this moment consciously.  Although details await my attention presently nothing is as important as breathing and being.  I can return to the hustle and bustle with a renewed awareness, focus and energy.  I will take breath breaks throughout this day.
