The way to release all the tension is with our mindful breath. So we always start with mindfulness. Mindfulness brings the mind to the present moment, and we see and experience things more deeply. Going back to the present moment, you can see if your body is tense. We look deeply and see that, “Ah, I am tense because I’m carried away by my worry, anxiety, and plans.” Then we can make the determination not to be carried away like that.
