Tip 42 – Avoid Gasping

As inevitable as the sunrise, your next breath is coming soon. Avoid gasping.

Normal breathing works best when left alone. A gasp is any rushing or augmentation of your inhale. You may feel like your next breath is late or needs a little help, but really the exact amount you need is coming very soon, and right on time. The more confidence you have in the easy inevitability of your next breath, the more satisfying each breath will be.
