    learning to breathe  — 1 year ago

    Worth doing!

    yoga classes help this, or you can find the basics of yoga in the internet with breathing excercises.
    honestly, i only really find it useful when I’m exercising. Of course, I smoke about 15 a day, so cutting down would probably help…

    and plus i drank coffee, plus it’s mad-sunny out despite oh-so-frigid cold, but so delightful to walk thru a city park on lunch instead of work and mind not focussing on anything, need to sleep and needed to have not drunk the coffee… who knew coffee, just coffee, could make one so unfocussed?

    I react before breathing. Need to breathe first, walk away and then come back and rethink things that piss me off.I think that work will be a lot easier to cope with then.

    Not worth it!

    nobody ever talks about how hard it is to breathe properly or meditate when you have consistant sinus problems. that being said, i went to this class at my church based on the book “full catastrophe living” but ended up missing too many sessions. however the once a month zen group was really nice last week. I’m trying to meditate more and breathe more deeply.

    I’ve always been what you could call ‘highly strung’. Learning to breathe, for me, means taking time to process and understand what has happened on any particlar day or time. Its about maintaining my composure and dealing with things on an intellectual level rather than an emotional one.

    I tend to jump in the deep end too quickly, blame it on the Leo in me, but I’m generally over dramatic and jump to conclusions.

    So learning to breathe and compose my thoughts and emotions before I speak will be something that will turn me from ‘dangerous’ to ‘deadly’.

    Just try me :)

    Now , I will redefine my goal as “to learn how to breath” in certain period of time.

    The experience of consicious breathing is just amazing, it reveals another world to me, the different way of living, different quality of life… sit down, shut my eyes and do nothing but concentrate on natural breathing, the mind and spirit become calm as the air come in come out, feel the stomoch become warm , the things before all around my head now all gone…

    I have realised that is only way I can “real” aware of my breath, once I go back to the outside, I forget always…to simplely breath.

    I wonder who can teach me how to remember to breath.

    need to do them

    I start breathing today!  — 2 years ago

    Practise being aware of each breathe that I take… I find that if I do my breathing slows and I feel calmer…

    to everyone who responded to my last entry, on how to defuse anger when talking to someone who is getting melodramatic.

    I was touched at the thought you all put into your comments, and I want to let you know that it really helped to read them.

    you rock!
    p.s. the situation is under control. no worries. :)
