Great break down of three practices that can often overlap! The differences were really clear :)
When I do breathwork we use both in most sessions, starting with mindfulness as we become aware of the present, moving into a meditation and then the guided breathing. At the end of the session we go the opposite way out - letting go of the breath and coming back and becoming aware of the body.
I use a combination of the three. I’ve committed to mindfulness in a lot of ways, but as someone being chemically induced into menopause right now, my hormones are crazy. So my anxiety has been higher than usual. That means I’ve found breath work and meditation extremely useful at this point in my life.
These are 3 similar but distinct practices that can overlap. I like how you separate them out.
Thank you! It helps people to understand, at least, I think.

Absolutely. And thank you for you insight into your own practices. That’s helpful. :)
I'm curious, which one of the three do you find yourself practicing the most?

I've been a yoga instructor for 15 years and I commend this breakdown. Well described!!!
Thank you! It’s something I’m passionate about!
Very well written and clear guide for those new to the topic I think a lot of people have that question about it.
I’m glad it helped. And yes, I think some of the common questions need addressed to debunk myths and confusion.
Very helpful guide. It can get rather confusing. 😬
Absolutely. I’m glad it was helpful!
This is helpful for someone new to these concepts! Thanks, Jenna.
Of course! Glad it helps!
This is a great guide! Thank you.
Thank you for the kind comment. :)
