Hello fellow beginners,
I was trying to find a good state of mind to be during the breath hold. I tried some things including counsciously relaxing a muscle, saying relax to myself but I realized that my mind starts to go really fast on toughts and this lead to sone tension. Interestingly, I tried durin a breath hold to stay completly aware of all sounds, any sound. Imagined my ears as a anthem and any sound I would directly focus rapidly. Obviously, I was using my hearing as the source of the information to be aware, but this could be applied to any sense I guess.
I tought it could be useful here since some people may struggle to relax during breath hold, and this, for me, worked best! Have a great week!
