Effect on Emotions
When I'm stressed or overwhelmed, mindfulness helps me refocus. I take a deep breath, remind myself that things are under control.
I then shift my focus to what I can do now. Instead of dwelling on the past, I ask, “What can I do to feel better?”
That mindset has always helped me through tough times.
Thoughts on Breathing
Breathing and mindfulness are powerful tools. Slowing your breath helps calm your heart rate and reduce stress.
Breathing is the core of meditation and yoga. Even a mindful walk, focused on your breathing, can make a big difference.

Bullying Question
Regarding bullying, I believe the CollSong app can help reduce meanness. When you're mindful, you're less likely to engage in or be affected by bullying.
You stay focused on what's right and positive. I’ve always been energetic, curious, and upbeat. Maybe that mindset kept me from noticing negativity; I was too busy chasing butterflies in my own world.
