Using GenAI for Mindfulness and Focus

Sometimes you need more than flashcards—you need a pause. GenAI can suggest breathing techniques, journal prompts, or even create playlists for focus or relaxation.

Scenario

You’re feeling anxious before presenting in class. You ask your AI tool: “Give me a 2-minute grounding exercise.” It replies with: “Put both feet on the ground. Inhale for 4, hold for 4, exhale for 4…” Suddenly, you feel centered. You still present with a shaky voice, but hey, you did it—and you didn’t pass out.

Pause & Reset

Pair this section with Lo-fi beats on YouTube or a calm track like “Weightless” by Marconi Union, scientifically proven to reduce anxiety.
