Quick heads up. This podcast is going to have a few light curse words, but I promise you it's worth it and essential in describing this hack.

I've started doing this quick breathing hack to let irritating things go or stop worrying about something and focus on the good stuff.

Ready for it? I close my mouth and do it completely through my nose because I know from breathing experts that we should all be breathing from our nose only.

As I take a huge deep breath in through the nose and out through the nose, I say, inhale the good shit, exhale the bullshit or the bad shit, depending on what we're dealing with.

One of the changes I've made in the last five or so years that's made the biggest impact

on my life is deciding not to care about things that don't matter anymore.

Letting things go is so freeing, but it's not always as easy to do in real time.

So I use this hack to do it.

Inhale the good shit. Exhale the bullshit.

Let's go. You're listening to the How to Be Awesome at Everything podcast where we're obsessed

with life hacks that make your life more awesome. Your host, Lindsay Dick Hout, is an entrepreneur

and business owner, a mom and wife, and someone who wants to do

things over the top at all times. This concept started as a collection of things Lindsay has learned

that she was documenting to give to her kids one day. And now it's a podcast. Join us on this journey

where we talk about how to be awesome at everything we do. Here's Lindsay.

On this podcast, we talk all the time about focusing on what's important and what you really care about and letting the other stuff go,

even if it's irritating or if it's not fair, letting it go because it just weighs on you.

Today, we're taking that one step further and I'm giving you a very practical hack that I love

for actually doing it. You know, I always say, I love big positive concepts

about improving your life and being positive and focusing on what matters and all the stuff.

But give me a hack in that moment when I'm standing in line at the grocery store, someone's been rude and I'm super irritated.

Give me a hack for how to physically move through that.
