Working from home has blurred the lines between work and home even further. This Christian mindfulness exercise can help us end our paid or volunteer work, moving into a relaxing time.

1. Go to a place where you can be alone for five to 10 minutes.
2. Pay attention to your breathing for three to five breaths. Breathe as deeply as you can.
3. Thank God for your job and your day. Ask God to be with you as you transition from the work day.
4. Check in with your mind. Are you having racing thoughts or anxious feelings?
5. Do a quick body scan. Are you tense in certain spots? Can you breathe and consciously try to relax those spots?
6. Stand up and move your body. Move your arms at the speed you are feeling inside. Then deliberately slow down those movements.
7. As you are slowing down, think of three things to be grateful for about the work day you just finished.
8. Breathe deeply and ask for the presence of God as you go into the rest of your day.
