Mastery of one’s breath is one of the keys to achieving power and peace in life. Many wise ancient cultures know this. It is so crucial to human autonomy one wonders: why is it not the first skill we are taught as children?
Imagine a world where people learn from young not only to count to ten when angry, but as well the various benefits of slowing down and speeding up one’s breath.
As a consequence, we gain better control of not just breathing, but our thoughts, emotions, and actions. It would provide an excellent foundation for handling life’s challenges.
