A note from Sean
When things get uncomfortable or uncertain, our reflex is to control. We do still have some influence. I like to do what I can and hold it a little lighter, including the breath.
Try this today. Put both hands on your belly and take five ordinary breaths. Then breathe in for four, hold for one, out for four, hold for one. Keep it to one or two minutes.

This suits a tense moment before a call or a test. If you feel dizzy or lightheaded, or holding the breath stirs up anxiety, go gently. Stop when you need to.
