Also my cat.Effect on EmotionsI was the biggest swayer of emotions you could meet, I was all over the place and had the hottest temper you can imagine. I loved to scorch the village. Now that I am more mindful, I know I can take a breath and come at things more from a place of love and from a place of understanding and wanting to make things right rather than just getting my way.Thoughts on BreathingBreathing is everything and nothing. It's as important as you make it. There are some days when I realize I'm not breathing and I need to breathe. For me meditation starts with that first breath and that tells my body and mind mind and my soul that, hey it's go time, kids, and we're going to meditate.Suggested ResourcesBook: The Happiness Advantage by Shawn AchorAdvice for Newbie
It doesn't need to be complicated at all, in fact the least complicated meditation is the best. That can be breathing, a 16 second meditation where you breathe in for 4, hold for 4, let out for 4 and hold for 4. You don't need a fancy cushion, you don't need anything fancy, you really just need to breathe and to spend a little time. You don't have to start with an hour.
