I used to be a mouth breather when I suffered some intense fight and flight responses to life. My fears were quite disturbing all round. Sometimes I’ve noticed just changing one thing to build towards a more whole body awareness can be a great step forward. I’m glad you had a better day considering what you’ve previously endured.
I’m now more conscious of my nose breathing and I’m able to create a better flow of breathing, that’s more natural, which in turn leads to better wellbeing. When everything slows and you’re more relaxed with what is, the breath and you can practice how it feels in the ways you’ve known previously and how it feels now. You start to see yourself becoming aware differently and that’s a good thing.
