Learning to Breathe


Ever get an email that makes your stomach just tense up in knots and then the feeling of dread overcomes you in a wave.


I get these emails from someone I am required to interact with. I half way desire, half way reject the information in each post to me.
I've got to remember to take deep controlled breaths.
Shoulders back, chin up and then slightly down - not trying to be a haughty queen.
Shoulders back is a goal. Opening up your chest opens up your lung capacity. Closing down your chest restricts airflow and without knowing it causes increased feelings of nervousness and anxiety.
