You're waking up tired, immediately checking your breathing. The morning ritual begins: 40 kettlebell swings to make yourself breathless, hoping it'll help you forget. It works... for a few minutes. Then you're back to holding your breath. Square breathing, belly breathing, breathwork classes – you've tried it all. Still, your chest aches. You're lightheaded. Hyperfocused on every breath. Here's what you're missing: Your held breath isn't the problem to fix - it's simply a signal that you're scaring yourself with your thinking. By trying to fix your breathing, you've innocently created a new problem: constant awareness of every breath. When you see this, the cycle breaks. Your natural breath returns not through exercises, but through understanding. Inside the Peace From Within community, we help you recognize these signals (aka love letters) and find your way back to clarity and calm. We show you how to turn toward your innate wellbeing instead of managing symptoms. When your mind quiets, your natural state of peace emerges, and with it, effortless breathing returns.
