Day 3,739

This morning I got back into a breathing exercise that I haven’t done in years. Laying on my back in the dark, inhaling and exhaling rapidly for forty breaths, holding my breath with empty lungs for as long as I could, deep breath in and hold, and then repeat another three times. A meditation of sorts, a calming of the mind, a singular focus on my breath and body. The sensation of feeling my heart pumping blood throughout my body. Melting away.

I also tried something different while driving, turning the temperature down to Low and savoring the cool air. At one point I noticed the steam from my breath. So relaxing and calming! Becoming comfortable in the discomfort.

Minor shifts, major rewards!

Thanks!!!
