Wow! I can’t believe so many things has happened since my last blog post! Some of them are: I am now a proud college graduate(!), I have travelled to a number of new places like Punta Bulata in Negros Occidental and some out of the way places in Capiz, met lots of new friends, experienced huge career growth, made major decisions in my love life(I’m engaged!), and a lot more! 
Truth is, I still have a lot of blog backlogs. But like I said, I will be tackling them all slowly but surely.
Anyway, this morning when I woke up I felt this itch to blog. Today’s blog post is about breathing and visualization. I’d like to share all the things I have learned from my teachers, my readings and of course through my experiences as well.
On Breathing
All of us breathe. We usually view the rhythm of our breathing as automatic. We are seldom aware of the quality of our breathing and tend to just take partial, shallow breaths using only the upper part of our lungs. We often hold our breath or take light, quick breaths, especially when we are tense, nervous, or fearful, without being conscious of it.
So now, try the following simple breathing exercise: Consciously, take a few short, shallow and irregular breaths. Be aware of how you feel. Chances are you will feel anxious, uneasy, and ungrounded.
