We are all subject to stress, even if we cannot admit it to ourselves. Unfortunately, in the conditions of modern life, it is very difficult to avoid traumatic situations. But you can learn to relax and focus on the really important things with the help of different practices, such as tai chi and meditation.
Peace of mind in your pocket
If you don't want to delve into the topic, but just want to relax for a few minutes, try Pause, a collaboration between Ustwo studio and Danish company PauseAble.
The app is simple but powerful. You may want to wear headphones so that no background noise distracts you.
All you need is to slowly slide your finger across the screen to relaxing music. A colored spot will follow your movements. Over time, it will get larger and will increase until a pleasant warm light fills the entire screen. Then you can close your eyes and relax.
The main thing at this moment is not to stop sliding your finger across the screen, otherwise the music will stop and you will have to start over.
By default, the time of one session is 10 minutes, but if you wish, you can change it in the settings. You can also choose the difficulty level there.
Such a simple process should help to calm down and focus on the state of "here and now".
