I appreciate your comments. I do meditate and i'm lucky to live in an area where nature is on my doorstep. I also took up Ki Aikido which has been a great benefit. It has lots of focus on relaxation in stressful situations and it has taught me how important breathing is. Sounds simple to just breath but in modern life we often breathe in such a shallow manner. When we can focus on deeper breathing techniques we give our body and mind a chance to deal with stress in a much more efficient way.
