I also hope she always knows sheā€™s beautiful exactly as she is, and never feels the need to change herself to keep up with a trend

Most people are walking around tired, anxious, and unfocused, without realising their breathing could be part of the problem.

Mouth breathing is so normal now that most people donā€™t question itā€¦ā€¦

But your body does.
It keeps your system slightly stressedā€¦ all day long.
Faster breathing. Less calm. More tension.

Then we wonder why we feel the way we feel.

āœØTry this āœØ
Close your mouth.
Breathe through your nose.
See if you can slow it down a little.

Because sometimes itā€™s not your life thatā€™s overwhelming you, itā€™s your breath.

The good news? Breathing can be retrained.

Thatā€™s exactly what I help people do through functional breathing coaching.

āœØ Ice bowl facial dip
āœØ Journaling intentions
āœØ 40 minutes yoga
āœØ 20 minutes meditation
āœØ Matcha with homemade almond milk
āœØ Protein pancakes with edible flowers
āœØ Dry brushing
āœØ Pilates

Meanwhile my morning routine is:
šŸ«  Surviving
šŸ«  ā€œPUT YOUR SHOES ONā€ x147
šŸ«  Making breakfasts nobody wants anymore
šŸ«  Packing lunches
šŸ«  Looking for the thing I specifically said to leave in the same place
šŸ«  Finding one shoe, no child attached to it

Seriously thoughā€¦ donā€™t feel pressured to copy someone elseā€™s perfect morning routine when your life looks completely different.

I set my alarm 10 minutes early so I can do a little breathwork before I get out of bed. Some mornings I hit snooze ā€” and thatā€™s okay too, my sleep is precious šŸ„°

Your routine should support YOUR life ā€” not stress you out trying to recreate someone elseā€™s!!!

I just needed to run this morning.

No plan
No route planned
No time planned
No distance planned

Just moving through the heaviness.

I am still a bag of emotions after the Richard Ashcroft concert at the weekend šŸ« 

I started with a headache and a head fullā€¦
I finished 11k later without a headache and feeling much lighter šŸ«¶šŸ»

This is what I needed this morning. Sometimes itā€™s breathwork, lifting, meditation etcā€¦ but today, I just needed to run. šŸƒšŸ»ā€ā™€ļø

Focus on your breath. Slow. Steady. Calm.
(Nasal breathing as much as possible)

As you run, repeat in your head:
ā€œinā€ as you breathe in
ā€œoutā€ as you breathe out

Your mind will wander.
When it does, gently come back:
inā€¦ outā€¦ inā€¦ outā€¦

No frustration.
No judgement.
That is the practice.

Because this run isnā€™t just training your bodyā€¦

Youā€™re training focus.
Calming your nervous system.
Learning how to stay, even when itā€™s uncomfortable.

And along the way, the run starts to feel lighter.

Pop me a DM & let me know if you try itšŸ«¶šŸ»

Did you know your breathing is constantly communicating with your brain?

Fast, shallow, mouth breathing (especially when youā€™re at rest) can signal:
āš ļø ā€œSomethingā€™s not rightā€
āž”ļø triggering your sympathetic nervous system (stress response)
(fight, flight or freeze)

Your heart rate increases
Your muscles tense
Your body prepares for danger

But when you shift to slow, calm, nasal breathingā€¦

You send a different message:
āœ… ā€œIā€™m safeā€

This helps activate your parasympathetic nervous system (calm response)

Your heart rate slows
Your body softens
You think more clearly

You wake up. Reach for your phone.
And before youā€™ve even taken a breath, your mind is already somewhere else.

Other peopleā€™s opinions. Other peopleā€™s noise.

And then you wonder why you feel rushed, scattered, and behind before your day has even started.

Itā€™s not a time issue. Itā€™s an issue with what youā€™re doing with your time.

Before you pick up your phone in the morning, try this:
Inhale for 4
Exhale for 6
Repeat for 5ā€“10 minutes

Then notice how different your day feels.

If you try it, Iā€™d love to hear how you get onā€”send me a message. šŸ«¶šŸ»
