I used to canvass door to door raising money for a few non-profits, and that was a really emotionally taxing job. One of the things I did to keep my state of mind where it needed to be was touch back with a couple of really time-crunch-friendly mindfulness exercises. Gave some of the benefits of meditating only I could do it anytime I had thirty seconds.

The last meditation on How to Meditate While Walking Down a Busy Street was helpful. I even shortened it and did it between almost every door.

Breathe in: Note that I'm breathing in.
Breathe out: Note that I'm breathing out.
Breathe in: This is the moment I am in. Be in it.
Breathe out: This moment is rare and precious, because it came unasked and is only here once.

Shortens to, "In. Out. This moment. Precious moment."
