Breathing is an automatic process, but when done consciously, it becomes a tool for relaxation. Deep, slow breaths lower blood pressure, reduce stress, and improve focus. Try box breathing: inhale for four seconds, hold for four, exhale for four, hold again. Repeat this cycle a few times and feel the shift in your energy. Meditation starts with breath awareness because it anchors the mind. Whenever life feels overwhelming, return to your breath—it’s always there to bring you peace.
