As Swami Rama said:
Controlling the breath, is a prerequisite to controlling the mind and body.
What is your breath telling you right now? Is your breath shallow and rapid, or slow and deep? You can use your breath as a signal to spot anxiety. It helps you develop self-awareness.
I talk a lot about breath because it really is the key to life. Life begins with the first breath and ends with the last. Take time to learn how to breathe deeply and it can change your entire life. You can even lose weight!
