Suzanne introduced bunny breath. Inhale 4-6 quick breaths through the nose. Exhale through the mouth with a long, smooth sigh. The quick intake of oxygen can help with focus. Although geared towards the kids, this breathing technique has helped her from having mommy meltdowns.
It is not selfish to focus on your own happiness. “One of the best ways to make yourself happy is to make other people happy. One of the best ways to make other people happy is to be happy yourself.”  -Gretchen Rubin
