Mindfulness of Breathing
/We all breathe, all the time... but have you ever attempted to use your breathe to assist in reaching a calmer state of mind? If you add mindfulness to your breathing, it may become a meditative practice! This practice works mainly through us withdrawing our attention from distracting thoughts and redirecting our attention to the physical sensations of the breath. By doing so, we are putting less energy into the emotional states of restlessness, anxiety, craving, ill will, etc that drive those thoughts. Over time the mind becomes calmer and our emotional states become more balanced and positive, and our experience becomes more positive.
