		<description>Hey Bakari, thanks for commenting. Yes, I agree with you, doing something out of the normal routine to expand our presence in the world, and to embrace it is always a good thing. It&#039;s easy to forget and get back into our daily rut though, we just have to harness awareness. 

Thanks again!

		<description>If I notice that I am falling into a rut I like to do something I never usually do. The activity jolts me into realizing that there&#039;s a lot to do out there in the world. I just forgot momentarily, that&#039;s all.

		<description>Hi Sudeep, thank you for visiting TheHappySelf.com and welcome. Yes, deep breathing is fantastic! I&#039;m glad you mentioned it. In fact, I try to do it daily and I notice when I am tense and stressed, I am not breathing but &quot;holding&quot; tightly. Thank you for the reminder to do it even more! :) 

Do you do diaphragmatic breathing Sudeep?

Cheers to you and thanks again for visiting!</description>
