Notice the pause between inhale and exhale
Por qué este hábito ayuda
The natural respiratory pause represents the body's optimal point of balance where oxygen exchange is most efficient and the nervous system is in perfect equilibrium between sympathetic and parasympathetic states.
Research in the Journal of Neurophysiology shows that awareness of breath pauses increases heart rate variability (HRV), a key indicator of stress resilience and autonomic nervous system flexibility.

Resumen rápido
The pause between breaths is often overlooked but holds profound stillness. This momentary suspension is where the body naturally resets, making it a powerful anchor for present-moment awareness without any need to alter your natural breathing pattern.
By focusing on this brief stillness, you tap into what meditation traditions call 'the gap' - the space between thoughts and actions where true choice and awareness reside. It's a built-in reset button we all possess but rarely notice.

I started noticing the breath pauses during stressful work moments, and it's become my secret calm button. That tiny space between breaths feels like an eternity of peace. Now when I feel overwhelmed, I just tune into those natural pauses - they remind me that there's always a moment of stillness available, no matter how chaotic things get.
