I’m sharing a workout I created for Danielle, and inside the video is this week’s breathing practice.
If you fast forward to 6 minutes, 22 seconds, you’ll find a simple breath sequence you can use all week.
You can also jump to around 11 minutes, 20 seconds, where there’s a 2-minute pause with ocean waves, placed there intentionally to slow you down and help you breathe.
I could give you 100 reasons for resistance training but I’m adding this here because in speaking, your body is an instrument, and confidence is something that is earned. The word confidence comes from confidere, to trust. The relationship you have with your body matters in how you move, how you stand, and how you speak.
So often what you want to say is communicated in what you don’t say, in what you don’t have to say, and in the energy you carry without realizing it. That energy has everything to do with how you take care of yourself. When you step into a space having challenged your body, having breathed, having slowed down, you carry the confidence of someone who trusts themselves.
I want you all to be blessed by this practice, and I want to give a big thank you to Danielle. If it wasn’t for her, this workout and this breathing practice wouldn’t exist.
Big shout out to , and make sure you breathe this week.
