Real ninjas visited my university twice to give demonstrations because I practice the real ancient samurai art of Katori Shinto Ryu, the only university in the country to do so.

    Mastering breathing great for anxiety and insomnia.

  • By the end, I did get a bit dizzy. I can tell that I need more practice. I only do 4x4 breathing when I start to get anxious. My husband does breathing exercises every day. I never think to do them. Thank you!❀️
