This is something they remind you constantly in SCUBA too! Li I concur with the shower thing. Being a water sign I thought it was something to do with that, but I think it's more a case of that's the only time you have almost complete privacy and 'think time'. Cascading water tends to drown out the rest of life screaming at you...Charmaine, can I confirm that we are supposed to post our exercises on our own blog?! I'm new to festing.

Same with meditation. But I do find that I can do a lot of thinking while doing a series of gentle stretching exercises and such. Most of my AHA! moments arrive in the shower for some reason. :)Lihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08831231531918915804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2774506789160968096.post-78424179049773710392011-08-01T05:38:23.229+10:002011-08-01T05:38:23.229+10:00'I had no idea we could energise different sid...'I had no idea we could energise different sides of our brain by controlling our breathing'<br /><br />A practice with a long history.Suzehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07908805179119217608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2774506789160968096.post-25406452108356684942011-08-01T05:29:51.045+10:002011-08-01T05:29:51.045+10:00Controlled breathing is amazing - a very good tool...Controlled breathing is amazing - a very good tool.
