How to Practice Mindfulness of the Breath

Breathing is something we do without thinking about it, yet it's essential to being alive. When we intentionally pay attention to our breath, we can tap into a powerful tool. Mindfulness of the breath simply means focusing on the sensations of each inhalation and exhalation. As we tune into our breath in a gentle way, we may feel calmer, clearer, and more present. Bringing awareness to this automatic function can strengthen our connection to ourselves and ground us in a meaningful way.
