Although prayer and exercise have been a part of my for as long as I can remember, I have often struggled with mediation. Until now. Thank you Ryan Carlton for telling me about this!

What Is Wim Hof Breathing?
Wim Hof breathing is about taking control of a normally unconscious process. Most of the time, you want your breathing to continue whether or not you’re thinking about it. But with this technique, you’re meant to specifically focus on the process.
In general, Wim Hof breathing is characterized by a period of forced hyperventilation followed by a period of holding your breath. You’re meant to inhale deeply each time and then allow your breath to leave you naturally — without using any force.
How To Do Wim Hof Breathing
The above video is a great introduction to the breathing technique. Due to certain side effects, it’s recommended that you sit or lie down before attempting this technique. Never do it while driving, or performing other activities that require constant motor control.
To perform this technique:
-Get into a comfortable, meditative position.
-Force yourself to briefly hyperventilate by taking 30 to 40 quick, deep breaths. Inhale through your nose or mouth and exhale through your mouth.
-Make sure that each breath fills both your belly and chest and that they follow one another in short, powerful bursts.
-After you’ve finished your 30 or 40 rapid breaths, inhale deeply, let it out, then stop breathing. Keep your lungs uninflated for as long as you can.
-Then, take one final deep breath and hold it in your lungs for about 15 seconds.
