“Our breathing pattern can have an enormous effect on our psycho-physical state. This means that changing the way we breathe can literally change the way we feel, almost instantaneously. Want to be relaxed? Breathe like you already are.”
– Charlie Morley, Wake Up to Sleep
I’ve shared passages like this probably a dozen times now. But it never gets old, because it’s the most powerful part of breathing: we can almost instantaneously change how we feel anytime, anywhere.
