Episode 9
Breathing can be such a powerful tool to manage big emotions and to stay focused. I invite you to get curious and think about how you breath! - what type of breath do you like?
In this meditation we explore the anatomy and the difference between a heart breath and a belly breath.
I am a yoga teacher and studied pranayama breathing - I am totally bias... I am a Heart breather. I was lucky enough to take a course with Leslie Kaminoff of the Breath Project.
We will explore further breath techniques in future episodes.
