Thoughts on Breathing His name is James Nestor, and he just wrote the book Breath: The New Science of a Lost Art. It is a wonderful book, and appreciate it and read the whole thing. Thanks to him, I am learning to close my mouth when I read. It's simple. There's nothing elaborate or crazy about it. A lot of us know now about box breath, square breath, relaxing relaxation techniques, but just the simplicity of especially when you go to sleep at night, keep your mouth closed. Suggested Resources Book: Brownies for Breakfast: A Cookbook for Diabetics and the People Who Love Them By Lynne Bowman Bullying Story Bullying is such a universal subject and in my life, I more than once had to kind of go against the grain. My career was such that, very often, I was the only girl in the room, and men as you know, have a very subtle way of bullying women when they feel that their territory is being encroached upon. So I think I learned kind of early in my adult game Related Episodes Change Your Food Mindset With Artful Eating; Karina Melvin Be A Mindful Eater With Fresh Food Alchemist, Julie Ward Film, Fitness and Food Heals; Allison Melody Special Offer Are you experiencing anxiety & stress?

episode. Hey, mindful tribe, what's your best way to wake up? Would it be having brownies for

0:31.9

breakfast? Well, that's what we're talking about. We're talking about food. We're talking about eating.

I'm here with my guest, Lynn Bowman today. Lynn, are you in mindfulness mode today?

0:51.3

You know, I am in mindfulness mode every day. I'm old. And you don't get old without having

We see things and we hear things to guide us in what we're doing.

And I am not here to say, I know exactly where it's coming from or who it is.
