Effect on Emotions

It definitely makes me much more even keeled. Since I started meditating I would say that I am much better able to handle the ups and down's of life much more quickly and have a better response to them.

Thoughts on Breathing

I am one of those people who probably holds my breath and gets way too intense in the moment at times. I think for me the number one thing is when I catch myself holding my breath and being so over the top intense, just taking a deep breath and just slowing down and decompressing. Also walking away from things for a minute so that I can gain some perspective, then revisiting them is the way I have to handle that.

I would say get started on doing what comes naturally to you.

Find something that is a match for your personality for what's most comfortable for you. Definitely give yourself an opportunity to take a couple minutes for reflection everyday in a way that feels right for you that incorporates in your life.

Effect on Emotions

It has definitely helped so much in my life. It has made me happier, it really has and being mindful has made me more grateful for the world around me. It has made me realize that we live in an amazing place, so I can't say enough about how much it has impacted me.

Thoughts on Breathing

Breathing really helps me get centered and it relieves stress from my life, so when I feel like I have a million things that are discombobulated in my head, just taking a step back, working on my breathing, being present. This really relieves so much stress from my life and as a fitness guy I'm going to say that it will help decrease your cortical levels. You wanna keep your cortical down so having some type of stress relief practice in your life can really help with that and breathing is just one of those things.

Advice for Newbie

Don't think that you have to do a million things to get benefits from it. Start with one simple practice, take timeouts during your day. If your stressed out at work just take a couple minutes every single day to get up and move around, take some deep breaths and you can build on things. If your starting with meditation, you might start with a simple hundred count breathing exercise and then expand on that as you become more comfortable with it but simply it at first. Build small incremental habits one step at a time and over the long haul you will see a ton of results.

105 Consistency and Mindfulness Weekends With Bruce Langford

Consistency paired with mindfulness will help you achieve your most important goals. Stick with it. I'm sure you've heard that plenty of times. Consistency can be one of the trickiest concepts, because as humans, we tend to see things differently depending on our mood and the world around us. When you decide on a goal, it is important to also decide at the same time to be consistent.

Create a habit to help you achieve your goal and keep that habit going. Be consistent and you will notice you'll start to do the action like its on auto pilot. This is what I found when I was learning to play the piano, then later the accordion and saxophone. Sometimes my mind would tell me the song was too hard, I'd never get the rhythms, and I might as well give up. In spite of those voices, I'd usually end up practicing anyway, and by being consistent, putting in the time and sticking with it, I'd eventually learn to play the piece of music I was working on.

Quotes:

“Whatever you hold in your mind on a consistent basis is exactly what you will experience in your life.” Anthony Robbins
It’s not what we do once in a while that shapes our lives. It’s what we do consistently. Tony Robbins
If you are persistent you will get it. If you are consisted your will keep it. Anon
Consistency is not perfection. It is simply refusing to give up. Tina Reale
Consistent action creates consistent results. Christine Kane
We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit. - Aristotle
