Somewhere along the way… You may be hard on yourself while trying to cope with the imbalance and stress of your “calling”…

Our hearts are moving, loving,

Our hearts are wells – deep and wide. If our well is not fed by a freshwater spring, where can it be replenished and refilled?

Your Thoughts…

How can I care for myself? How can I care for Others? How can I create balance?

My Personal Formula

• I hope you've started to explore the many features of Calm. Here

are 5 tips to help you achieve a calmer mind:

• Commit to a small goal. A few minutes a day is all you need to

begin building your habit. Every guided program includes a 3 minute session to help you reach this goal.

• Set a reminder. Life gets busy and it can be easy to forget. Set an

alarm on your phone or in the Calm app to help you.

• Find a consistent time. Set aside a time that works with your

schedule such as first thing in the morning, before bed, or during your lunch break.

• Set a goal and designate a reward. Set a realistic goal and then

reward yourself for achieving it. For instance, commit to 3 mins per day for 1 week, and treat yourself with a favorite snack.

• Be flexible. If you're busy, sick or just plain forgot, don't sweat
• it. Just start a session when you're able to and begin a new streak.
