Immer wenn ich nervös oder ĂŒberfordert bin, schließe ich die Augen und stelle mir vor, wie ich durch einen ruhigen Kiefernwald gehe. Der Duft der BĂ€ume, das Knacken der BlĂ€tter unter meinen FĂŒĂŸen und das Zwitschern der Vögel beruhigen mich sofort. Angefangen hat das als 1-Minute-Habit in Arbeitspausen, aber inzwischen mache ich es sogar vor Meetings oder stressigen Anrufen. Es hilft mir, mich zu erden und leichter in den Moment zurĂŒckzukommen. Diese Visualisierung hat mir geholfen, besser zu schlafen, ruhiger zu bleiben und mich emotional stĂ€rker zu fĂŒhlen.
