    3. Smile breath

      Breathe in while letting your face soften into a small natural smile and breathe out releasing tension.

    4. Invite delight

      Recall one joyful memory and describe it aloud letting yourself feel a bit of that bright energy again.

      Blow out the candle with a light playful breath and go do one small thing that you genuinely enjoy.
