1- Taking control of our breath can help us regulate our emotional state and focus our minds.  

2- There are many ways to shape our breathing, but all have their roots in three basic tools: inhalation, exhalation, and holding our breath.

3- Deep breathing is the best tool to move your body from “fight or flight” mode into “rest and relax” mode by oxygenating your blood and calming your mind.
