A lot of people think “meh breath work, it can’t really help me”.

Flip it; hold your breath while running, take every 2nd breath while swimming laps, consider the breath you long for when being tickled.

You got it, it’s hard & it physically hurts . . . When the body experiences higher expectations then general functioning ie: running, swimming, tickling etc or ie: anxiety, triggers, emotions etc it depends on the body to re-oxygenate itself quicker as it is being depleted at a faster rate.

No . . . This doesn’t mean breathe in and out quickly to “quickly get oxygenated”, it means breathing in sequence to oxygenate the body with a higher quality and % of oxygen, all whilst this sequence calms your farm & nervous system whilst your at it.

• • • Healthy Anger is Healthy - 4min podcast

Expressing anger in a healthy manner can promote self awareness and self control

STOP, ACKNOWLEDGE, QUESTION;
1) What’s making me angry?
- Getting kids ready for school 🤷🏼‍♀️
- Unmet needs from your partner 🤷🏼‍♀️
- Being late 🤷🏼‍♀️
- Feeling underpaid 🤷🏼‍♀️

2) Is my anger reflective of something of value to me?

3) How and why does my anger represent the importance of what is at hand?

4) How can I communicate the importance and how it makes me feel by promoting my anger in a healthy manner?

Rid of ongoing suppression, feelings of rot and spite and the damage of my future self and others

Welcome to the mindfulness exercises podcast. May this be a source of inspiration and motivation in your mindfulness practice and teachings.
