Just Breathe - Four Stroke Breath

Not sure about Meditation? Here is a breath you could try for 3 minutes.
Four Stroke Breath
Posture: Sit in a chair or in easy pose on a cushion
Breath: Inhale in four heavy strokes, then exhale in one long stroke
Eye Focus: Focus at the tip of the nose
Time: 3-11 minutes

This 4 stroke segmented breath will open up your lung capacity to absorb more oxygen.  It will give you more patience, more tolerance.  It gives you the capacity to develop a more effective breath pattern.  On average people breath 15 breaths per minute.  If you want to have success in life, slow your breathing down to 5 breaths a minute.
