View your breath as a friend, and as an indicator on how you respond to different situations in life. If you know your breath you will also instantly know how you feel about something, how your body responds to different stressors, and so on. Learning to breathe deeper, longer and fuller is also learning to control your parasympathetic nervous system response. Breathing consciously is a very accessible way to calm the body down and allow space for reflection on any given situation. Now, let’s breathe together!
Sometimes we function more on routine than based on needs. And that isn’t necessarily bad. Routines saves a lot of energy. Still, learning to tune in to how you feel helps you increase your knowledge about yourself so that you can get better at handling life. Observe with a non judgemental mind!
Same as with the hands, our feet can be thought of as sensory organs. The soles of the feet have plenty of something called proprioceptive nerve endings, nervs that send information to the brain about where in space the body is located. When we constantly wear shoes that may not give enough space to our feet, these nervous connections may become inactive. So now, start activating the nervous connections between your brain and your feet!
