Slow down your movements

Extreme slowness is ideal for releasing tension and clearing your mind for a few minutes.

Choose a daily activity that you do mechanically (taking a shower, putting away your clothes, gardening, etc.). Before you begin, take a slow, deep breath and slow down all your movements to the extreme. Concentrate on your posture, on your every move, on the object you are holding, on the physical contact with the object. Then focus your attention on your muscles and the way you breathe.
