   Breathe!!!

  
...when nervous, anxious, fidgety. Breathe deeply to regain inner tranquility. 
      This is how to bust distress!

Breathing shifts brain waves to calm you down! 
When stressed, we often turn to vices to raise serotonin and make us feel euphoric ~ 
refined carbohydrates [candy, soda, chips], alcohol, drugs ...ANYTHING to produce the feel-good brain chemical, 
serotonin to escape anxiety. But, breathing deeply works even better. 
Just three deep belly breathes will take you to a completely different place... and you will like it :)


Here's How to BREATHE DEEPLY:

  • You can breathe deeply anywhere... anytime...
    Deep meditative breathing requires you focus on proper breathing techniques. 
    Allow the fresh air to fill your belly ...and watch your stomach expand, like a balloon. 
    Hold it for a few moments. 
    RELEASE COMPLETELY. 
    Compress more air out of your belly than you took in, originally. 
    Feel the emptiness of your contracted tummy.

  • O.K. Now, start over. That was one deep breathe. Take three deep breathes for a complete attitude adjustment.

  • Do you feel the serotonin coming on? Just kidding...it takes a few more breathes than that!


Breathing is the best pill you can take to calm down NOW!!!

  • Breathing deeply is what assisted me in busting my eating disorder. And, it has worked ever since to calm any fears I may have... and every anxiety. Breathing assists you in changing brain chemistry. Like exercise, breathing also stimulates the release of neurotransmitters like endorphins, dopamine and serotonin...

  • Escaping reality is not all that bad! Just do it with deep breathing ...or walking. 
    And...what IS reality ...and what IS truly real, anyway? BREATHE DEEPLY to escape your tense reality!

The best part about breathing deeply ~
...it is EASY & FREE!!! 

It gets you out of your head and into the spirit of who you are!  

That is special!
