I can't believe no one has commented on this. Thank you for your insight! As a practicing therapist, I 100% agree with you!

In a 3:51 second video, you've managed to help me resolve something I've been tinkering with for 5 months but couldn't solve - thank you!

Nice and informative video. . Be careful what you feed your mind to reduce overthinking and stress. Avoid comparing yourself with others, reduce watching negative social media and avoid constipation as it affects the mind. Your breathing is closely related to the brain [mind] and gives relief from stress-anxiety. For a relaxed mind observe the sensations of your natural incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for 10-15 minutes or more. You can sit or lay down--eyes closed--No deep breathing. Don’t fight your thoughts. Never meditate with expectations. Make it a lifetime habit to observe your breath day and night before sleep, at work, when travelling, etc with eyes open or closed. Best wishes--Counsellor.
