March Mindfulness is our new series that examines the explosive growth in mindfulness and meditation technology — culminating in Mashable's groundbreaking competitive meditation bracket contest. Because March shouldn't be all madness.
When you're stressed -- consumed by thoughts about your next career move, that embarrassing thing you said a few weeks ago, or anything else that makes your chest tight -- it's helpful to bring yourself back into the present by taking a few deep, steady breaths.
Obviously, that's not always easy, but there are plenty of captivating GIFs that can help you visualize your way to mindfulness. These 10 will shift your focus away from your thoughts and toward your breathing. Take a look, breathe in, breath out, and wind down.
