Effect on Emotions- All we are is this big old ball of emotions. Those emotions are trying to hijack us from doing what's actually important to us.
- If we're unaware of all these different emotions that we have and what they're trying to do then it's really easy to be distracted.
- I have mindful practices that I go through every single day that help to ground and center me. They help me get back on track. It's changed my life.
- I know there is Wim Hof and a lot of people have specifically practiced breathing. I recognize in myself that when I am praying, I slow my breathing down.
- As I slow my breathing down, everything slows down. My mind slows down, and any energy I have slows down.
- Although I don't practice breathing, breathing is part of the practice I have.

- When I was a kid, I was bullied some. I hit my growth spurt late. There were people that just picked on me based on my size.
- I don't know how mindfulness would have made a difference. Maybe for the bully.
- At the time it was painful but being a kid is painful, right. That's something I recognize more as I've gotten older.
- As an adult, I realize that bullying is an inner turmoil. The way that we treat ourselves. It's really easy to give ourselves a hard time.
