One of the best ways to improve your level of stress is by improving the way you breathe. How you breathe does make a big difference in how you manage your emotional health. This week we launch into a series designed to improve your emotional and physical health by improving your lung capacity. You'll be guided using a different breathing technique every day. Think of this week's series are your personal Breathing Bootcamp.

0:00.0	This is episode 150 of the Daily Meditation podcast. I'm Mary Meckley, and I honor you for giving
0:09.6	your self-permission to slow down and connect to the best part of who you are. How are you doing today? I hope all is well and I wonder how your
0:24.9	challenge is coming along. Your challenge this week in our breathing boot camp series where
0:32.6	you are exploring a different breathing technique in each episode is a challenge to have you practice the breathing
0:44.4	techniques, maybe choose one that you feel pretty good doing, and to do that for one to
