Every breath you take: how to breathe your way to a mindful life

• Gain an immediate sense of peace - this can be experienced from the first breath
• Helps you accept yourself, other people, and your life, just as they are without fighting against them

• Achieve an inner sense of well-being, energy, and joy
• Be kinder to yourself and to others
