Effect On Emotions











I'm a lot calmer and a lot more purposeful in the way that I talk.
I'm a lot more aware of emotions creeping in, and I have the ability now to recognize them, understand where they are coming from in me for whatever's happening, and allow them to pass through me.
I don't hold on to things like I used to.











Thoughts On Breathing

Going back to the yoga, there are a lot of breathing techniques that people will use to calm themselves down In a moment of crisis or extreme anxiety or anger. They may count down or do the alphabet in reverse. They may count to 10 or hold their breath. Those are one type of breathing exercise. Going back to my yoga practice, I have a breathwork sequence.
My favorite happens to be what I call a kalabati or a breath of fire. You breathe out through your nose rapidly several times.
Those breathing exercises in yoga are not meant to create a peaceful, mindful space but rather to awaken this energy inside you.

Bullying Story





















I think everybody goes through some phase of being bullied in their life. I'm no exception to that. I've experienced bullying in my life.
I know that, at the end of the day, in that moment, there is very little that can be done. The protagonist is going to do what they are going to do; they are going to be the bully. They have a variety of life situations, motions, and circumstances that are way beyond anybody's control and the ability to dissuade them at that moment in time.
We can look as a society to try to remove and minimize the preponderance of those circumstances to try to remove the need to act out and to vent those circumstances and frustrations. I don't know that that's even possible.
