(2024) - Week 2 - Breathing Practice
It’s winter y’all and I really get into nerd mode at this time of the year. I enjoy reading and learning and resting. Right now I’m listening to the audio program, Unlock Your Wise and Mindful Brain on the Insight Timer app. As a premium member you get access to thousands of courses, including mine and I love learning, so there you have it.
In the audio course, Dr. Karolien Notebaert, shares scientific proof that mindfulness is beneficial and essential for our well-being. In fact, she says as a scientist she really didn’t believe mindfulness meditation was beneficial until she tried it. And now it is one of the things she highly recommends to manage stress and to help with brain function.
Did you know that mindfulness can be practiced for 5 to 10 minutes a day to help you relax, increase your self-awareness, and calm your nervous system.
I’m coming up on a birthday on the 22nd and giving myself permission to rest during the winter months even more than before. I mean, after all, that’s what the winter is for. Deep rest. I mean before you know it, it’ll be spring and I’ll be out and about. Lol.
Fun fact, I’m dictating the first draft of this newsletter into my phone while lying in bed, listening to the rain.
The excerpt from my excerpt from my book/eBook/audiobook, Why Struggle? Life is too short to wear tight shoe is the breathing practice.
For this practice, you may be seated or lie down, and it’ll only take two or three minutes.
Feel free to pause this until you’re ready to start.
Let’s begin.
Breathing Practice
Sit comfortably with your back straight if possible.
Close your eyes and begin to become aware of your
breath.
Simply breathe in and breathe out.
Pay attention to your breath as you breathe in and out.
Just breathe in and breathe out.
Breathe in and breathe out.
Feel the air moving through your nose and through your chest.
Just breathe in and breathe out.
Continue breathing and being aware of your breath and use this breathing technique throughout your day.
Try this practice for 5 minutes a day.
End of excerpt.
