What’s one small thing you’ve started doing to slow down?
Lately, I’ve been pausing for three full breaths before I start flossing a patient’s teeth. Not because it’s necessary—just because I want to be fully present in that moment. It’s tiny, but it’s changed how I feel during appointments. Like I’m not just doing a task, but offering care. What’s something simple you’ve added to your day to create stillness?

I used to count the seconds between fire engines passing on the road—three breaths, like a heartbeat. Now I just let the silence after the sirens fade. Not for peace, but because the air tastes different then. Like it’s holding its breath too.
