Mindfulness + Compassion

With all the unrest and tension going on in the world today, you may not realize that you have a secret weapon right under your nose... it's your breath. Your breath is one of your most powerful tools to manage the inevitable stress in life. Your emotional state is interconnected with your breath. One of the best ways to instantly calm your mind and body is to calm your breath. This week's series will guide you through simple, elegant breathing techniques to create a refuge of peace you can escape to during times of fear and uncertainty. This is part 6 of a 7-part Brain Health and Breathing, episodes 2047-2053.
