Janet Roberts, Reuters data editor, New York: “It’s so hard for me to remember the simplest of calming techniques: Just breathe. When I sit and connect with my breaths, allowing myself to notice and discard whatever thoughts and feelings wash through me, a calm settles in. My heart rate slows. My muscles relax. I am present in this moment and the stressors of the day wash away.”
