Hi Matt,
I use to be obessed with my breathing, that i actually thought that i couldnt breath, WHAT OUR MINDS CAN DO TO US... But to be honest we breath just fine were getting enough oxygen that we need. I read in a book that actually in the center of our brain we have a part that does our breathing, so there no way that we couldnt get enough oxygen from our thoughts, even though we feel like were not ( get what i am saying lol)
I mean i know its hard not to think about certain things, but when you start to obesse about your breathing or blinking, try adverting your thoughts to something funny, or play a game on the computer something to keep your mind busy. I notice when i just sit that is the worse for me, cause thats when all my thoughts go directly to myself. But its a learning process to me that i am retraining my brain like to think positive and not of irrational thoughts, someone on her told me when i get these thoughts to actually say out loud STOP, and you know it does distract you believe it or not... Its like i think gosh why cant i be obessed with POSITIVE THOUGHTS and not negative thoughts, but i can i can be that way, its just so hard cause for so long i have been a negative thinker and what if... thinker.
Take Care.
Tiff.
