It is very important to breathe right, and we may as well throw in good posture while we are at it. The true warrior knows that there is a direct link—a feedback loop if you like—between the physical, mental, and emotional states of being. The true warrior knows that you can change your mind by changing your posture, which will impact your emotional state. If you change your mind, your posture will follow naturally, as well as the associated emotional state. Change your emotional state and see what happens to your mind and your posture. It is all linked and connected. The true warrior knows that in order to be ready at all times, for opportunities and threats, he or she must be in an optimal emotional and mental state. The easiest way to get there is through great posture, physical exercise, and physical conditioning. In other words, challenge yourself!

True warriors embrace physical challenges, as they know that they will only benefit from overcoming the challenges, and that their bodies are positively responsive to stress and challenge. It is how the body grows, matures, and gets better. Weeding the garden results in a beautiful garden. Working out, pushing yourself, and improving your physical fitness results in a beautiful life opportunity, a stable emotional outlook, and a tranquil mind.

You are warriors, and by concentrating on your breathing, and learning how to breathe right at all times, you will be positioned in a much better frame of mind, and an effective emotional state, which will allow you to grab opportunity by the horns whenever it presents itself … and you will succeed beyond your wildest imaginings. So it has been written.
