i used to think life was a tragedy—now i know that its a comedy

square breath stops my shaking

Written in

by

my tardive dystonia has me usually shaking with uncontrollable muscle movements

i have long known that breathing helps me slow my movements—intentional meditative breathing

but as of late i have discovered that square breath stops my movements quite reliably and quickly

square breath is breathing in over a count of four

holding your breath for a count of four

breathing out over a count of four

holding your empty breath for a count of four

and repeating

and that

my friends

done when lying down

stops my movements !!
