It's not clear you labeled that you where holding your breath though I will assume you did. The only step not listed above which would follow labeling "holding breath" is to diligently return to noticing.

In the beginning everyone does a few (problematic) things over and over again (the exact things vary from person to person). All that is required to allow those things to fade away is to be diligent with the practice and patient with yourself.

In short just keep at it.
