CONSCIOUS BREATHING: Conscious deep breathing is one of the most

simple ways to calm and integrate the mind and body. The first step

towards the breath to be your ally is to become aware of it. The next

step is to make subtle shifts that will allow breath easier and

deeper. As your breath becomes balanced, your mind becomes balanced.As

your steady and deep breath becomes a way of life, your body and mind

become robust and serene at the same time. It is likely that you will

not always be aware of your breathing. Therefore, I suggest that you

set aside times to practice and focus upon breath. I like to practice

slow deep breathing when I am working on the computer, when driving on

long stretches of open road, and as a way to begin meditation. –
