Our brain can produce as many as 50.000 thoughts a day, according to the National Science Foundation. Not just that, but 95% of these thoughts are repeated on a daily basis. This is why if you have limited beliefs, it can be challenging to overcome them.
Working with our breath gives the unique opportunity to change our thoughts – and thus change our mindset – in multiple ways.
There are a lot of exercises that help you relax. This is very helpful to stop your mind from racing and going into a million directions.
This gives you the opportunity to focus on thoughts that are constructive, and not pay attention to fleeting, negative thoughts.
Another way to control your thoughts is through breath holding.
Breath holding does not only increase your mental resilience as you push against the very reflex of life.
When you hold your breath, your mind becomes completely still. This is a great way to empty the mind of negative thoughts and allow positive thoughts to flow in.
