- It's
definitely been a huge way for me to process difficult emotions. I
think it was definitely easier for me to just ignore difficult emotions,
but mindfulness has allowed me to just sit with those emotions so I can
fully deal with them as opposed to just ignoring them.
- Breathing
is a huge part of my mindfulness practice. Whether it's surfing or
working out or doing occasional transformational breathing classes or
just sitting at home, breath allows me to lift weights or run more or if
I'm sitting at home it allows me to facilitate getting into that state
where I'm at that peaceful sense of mind.
