- me: I'm going to get sexy and attractive. I'm going to work out every day, and eat a lot, and bulk up and be fit. And then I can show everyone on Tumblr how I am fit and toned and all that jazz, and gain a bunch of new followers. I'm going to get started on that right now.
- me (5 minutes later): How about we start tomorrow.
Relearn how to breathe
Do this exercise five times a day and you’ll start thinking and performing better in no time
- Inhale deeply
- Exhale with a short burst (as if blowing out a candle). This helps activate your diaphragm, which most people don’t use.
- Exhale with a long, slow finish to empty the lungs. Breathlessness comes from not expelling enough CO2.
- Inhale, filling your lungs from the bottom to the top, instead of taking short sips. Most use a third of their lung capacity.
- Hold for a moment to allow oxygen to saturate the cells.
- Exhale slowly and completely.
- Repeat steps 4 through 6 for five minutes.
