Breath Right

Today's journaling involved breathing.  Seems simple enough.  Even though I do meditate regularly, I apparently am breathing wrong.  We are supposed to breath with our stomach muscles, but generally it is considered "polite" to chest breath.  And that is how I breath.  Today for 4 minutes I belly breathed.  Like we were taught in Band.  Before the exercise my heart rate was 69 and my saturation was 96.  After the exercise, my sats were the same, but the heart rate had gone down to 65.  Considering I was pretty relaxed when I started, that's pretty good.
