The process of mindful breathing is a form of meditation; however it is also a great way to get more oxygen into your blood and tissues.  If you start right now and pay attention to how you are breathing, it is more than likely that you will find yourself breathing quite shallowly.  This is not a healthy breathing pattern. You can start out by just inhaling completely and then slowly exhaling completely.  If you take one minute to just do this focused breathing each day, you will find that you feel better during that minute.  And, you will catch yourself paying attention to your breathing several times throughout the day.  Taking deep breathes will help you relieve stress and help with your over-all health. If you are stressed or tired, take a minute out of your day to breathe mindfully.

Breath in through your nose and slowly exhale through your mouth.

You can also use this as a way to bring positive energy into your body and release the negative energies.
As you breath in think positive thoughts as you exhale release all your negative stress, feelings, thoughts or situations.

If you have breathing exercises or suggestions, we’d like to hear them.  Be sure to leave us a comment!
