## 20 Practical Steps to Boost Openness to Change (One Consolidated List)
1. **Start each day with a 2‑minute breathing biofeedback session** – establish physiological coherence.
2. **Integrate a 5‑minute Core‑strengthening plank after any stress‑trigger notification**.
3. **Log “resistance” moments and pair them with a 10‑minute Mindful walking meditation**.
4. **Use the Slackline beginner step challenge whenever a new task is added**.
5. **Join the Group empathy role‑playing game weekly to normalise non‑conformity**.
6. **Replace any scrolling binge with a 30‑second Breath‑biofeedback burst**.
7. **Insert a 5‑second mindful pause before each automatic cue (e.g., reaching for coffee)**.
