28. Too busy to breathe? How to find micro-moments for yourself in your day

If you’re constantly rushing between nappy changes, school runs, work and everything else motherhood demands, when do you get a moment to simply breathe?

In this short voice memo, recorded beside the Danube, I share a small way to create moments of rest when you don’t have the time or space for a proper break.

We talk about why waiting for a large stretch of free time can mean never pausing at all, where you might find 30 seconds or one minute within an ordinary day, and how briefly slowing down can help you reconnect with yourself.

A micro-moment isn’t a substitute for the real rest, support and time mothers need. But when those things aren’t available right now, one intentional breath can still offer a moment of relief.
