I found that out, because I went out and left my inhaler at home! I will have to try this every time, before using the inhaler. I just found your blog, and joined your carnival. :)

It's funny you should bring up the breathing technique. I was panicked and stressed yesterday and my husband insisted that I sit down and breathe for a minute. I most certainly did not want to, I had things to finish. But I did and I felt so much more calm and my heart rate went right back down. I'm so thankful he made me do that.

Glad you didn't have to get up from your warm cocoon. There’s something to be said about breathing and being calm. Glad you didn’t have to get up from your warm cocoon.

This is definitely a nice thing to learn. I’ve done breathing exercises for my asthma for a long time…especially when I’m warm and cozy and do not want o get up for my rescue inhaler!

That is amazing! I'm going to share that one with my daughter who has asthma. It reminded me of the "cure" (not the right word at all) for my daughter's heart palpitations. She has SVT which is this random thing where her heart races really, really fast. It only happens a few times a year, so the doctor did not prescribe anything for it, but she did say that when it happens my daughter should close her lips real tight and push real hard, like blowing into a straw that has the other end blocked. It stops the palpitations! Wow! That is amazing! I’m going to share that one with my daughter who has asthma.
