60-Second Mindfulness Exercises

Real mindfulness doesn't require 20 minutes. These practices work in the time it takes to make coffee.

You need mindfulness that:

  • •Works in under a minute (you don't have time for more)
  • •Doesn't require a quiet room or perfect conditions
  • •You can do at work, in the car, or anywhere
  • •Actually calms you down, not just makes you feel guilty for not doing enough
  • •Fits into real life, not retreat life

Why Short Practices Actually Work Better

Your nervous system doesn't care if you meditate for 1 minute or 20. What matters is frequency and consistency.

Multiple 60-second resets throughout the day can be more effective than one long session because they prevent activation from building up.

Short practices are sustainable. You'll actually do them, which means they'll actually help.
