Breathing is Your Force in Action

​1. Breathe. Refocus. Respond.
Dr. Bal Pawa, MD, in The Mind-Body Cure, shares a simple yet powerful technique called BMW breathing—a practice that helps reset your autonomic nervous system so you can respond rather than react in stressful moments.
Here’s how it works:
🫁 Breathe – Inhale slowly and deeply through your nose, hold for 5 seconds, then exhale through your mouth.
🧠Mind – Notice your thoughts, but keep bringing your focus back to your breath.
🗣 Word – Choose a calming word (like peace, amen, or om) and repeat it as you exhale.
This simple practice can shift your mindset and bring instant calm. Give it a try the next time you need a reset!
