Breathe Deep

Another thing that is helping me greatly through class is breathing deeply.

Breathe through your nose deeply and fully. Filling up the tum and then into the chest. The instructors say to breathe out through your nose too. Today seemed very hot so I just told myself that "It's Okay" and started breathing deeply. Especially between asanas. Though I did get a little "wiggy" and chose to lay down during a short part of the locust. I was making a huge effort and my heart rate really shot up there. But I'm sure that some of the distress was caused by dehyration. I didn't drink much water prior to class.

So, two things that help. Drinking lots of water prior to arrival and remember... BREATHE DEEPLY!
