Similar ideas to Breathe
Just focus on your breathing for a minute or two.
Focus only on the air going in and out of your nose. Nothing else.
Whether you gasp or sigh, your listeners will notice the breath you take before you speak.
Focus on the exhale. Think about controlling your breath like taking a sip of air–the less air you have to hold, the less sound you’ll make when you breathe.
