Breathe Easy
Most of us are not intentionally taking deep breaths throughout our day.
This leaves our brains literally gasping for air!
According to the American Institute of Stress, breathing deeply can increase the amount of oxygen in the brain and stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system, which promotes a state of calmness.
Meditation
is hard!
Many people think meditation is too hard because they find their minds are easily distracted.
Meditation is a practice, and even experienced meditators have days where their thoughts are more scattered than others. But when we make daily attempts to sit quietly and breathe deeply, even for a few moments, profound change can occur.
