Patience - an art?

Developing Patience Tool

Patience, Art of Intelligent Waiting

“Adopt the pace of nature: Her secret is patience.”

—Ralph Waldo Emerson—

• If you are feeling impatient, acknowledge your feelings as soon as you sense that you are out of sync – experiencing feelings such as impatience, frustration, anxiety, being judgmental or mental gridlock.

• Take a short time-out to do heart-focused breathing: breathe a little slower than usual, and imagine you are breathing through your heart or chest area.

• As you do heart-focused breathing, imagine with each breath that you are drawing in feelings of patience and inner ease.

• Anchor these feelings of patience and inner peace in your heart. Do this throughout your daily tasks, interactions and challenges.

Adapted from the Inner-Ease Technique.
