Effect on Emotions

• Mindfulness gives us the freedom and the choice to love and hate, to react or not react.

• Mindfulness gives us the space to make that choice. In most cases it gives me the moment of pause I need to not react as much as I maybe otherwise would.

Thoughts on Breathing

• Breathing is THE tool that allows our mind to calm. I am not a fancy breather. I do write some blogs about Wim Hof and this and that and there are some really great techniques out there for falling asleep, there’s box breathing, but I’m pretty old school.

• If I just put all my focus on the breath coming into my nose and focus on nothing more than the sensation of that feeling, once, twice, three times, I feel a million times better.
