EDITOR’S NOTE: Thank you Donald Roddy for a great reminder about handwashing and a way for a win-win. Make it a moment of meditation, deep calming breathes … we all need this right now.
Are you weary of singing the ABC’s and Happy Birthday song during hand washing? If so, have I got a great idea for you! Courtesy of Thich Nhat Hanh, I suggest you practice this breathing exercise … (please follow directions below):
Handwashing Meditation:
In – Out
Deep – Slow
Calm – Ease
Smile – Release
Present Moment – Wonderful Moment
And hey, if it happens to make you a better spouse, parent, sibling, friend, coworker, and citizen along the way, all the better! Enjoy!
