Researchers use stem cells to generate human neurons resembling those in the brain that control breathing during opioid reactions, for eventual chip devices to test overdose therapies.

Screen Apnia: Don’t forget to breathe while you’re doing your screen stuff (like reading this short post).

I’m not gonna lie - my private life is anything but easy at the moment. But #music has always helped me through difficult times. It’s mostly #singing that helps me and stabilises me - because I’m feeling myself.

In May I wrote a song about the power of #breathing and singing as part of the Album Writing Club. It’s the last #Song on my demo album In Moments Like These. You can listen to it here!

#Lena, who I've written about, suddenly showed signs of #pain yesterday - rapid #breathing, hunched #posture, little interest in #food. I couldn't find anyone who would look at her yesterday, but had her at our #vet this morning. It turns out the delay didn't change anything.

She was in congestive #heart failure. Clearly this is something that doesn't happen overnight, but she seemed literally 100% fine the day before. She was given hours, not days, by the vet.

We said #goodbye.

The way in which the dinosaurs breathed
Through their bones, was truly a feat
Two other lineages also embraced
The same way of breathing at last

Some species of sharks have a spiracle that allows them to pull water into their respiratory system while at rest.

For the first day in too many, the government home of the U.S. Air Quality Index says my air quality is 'Good'. A pleasing improvement from when it was 'Very Unhealthy'. Searchable site of air quality data. #airquality #breathing #airnow

''Some #cats developed severe #symptoms including difficulty in #breathing, bloody #diarrhoea, and #neurological signs, with rapid deterioration and death in some cases. In total, 20 cats had neurological signs, 19 had respiratory signs, and 17 had both neurological and respiratory signs.''

I can see thst the #psychologist, who suggested #breathing exercises would address #AuDHD, has sent me a messsge, presumably in response to my rather irritated missive after that first session. I find myself unmotivated to read it. Warranted? Unsure. I just feel I need someone who sees and hears me, and doesn’t outright suggest it’s a fever dream. #ActuallyAutistic

Feeling very #quiet these days. I don't have a lot to say. I am experiencing a period of massive #healing and #growth. Since it's an internal process, I am letting it take the time it needs and doing only what I am called to do in the moment and nothing more. I'm #listening.

I hope you enjoy this little glimpse of one of my favorite spaces. A lot of healing happens in #nature. And #breathing.

It is critical that you protect your lungs and respiratory system and learn how to breathe during anxiety or with breathing problems. Using safe and effective Herbs for Lungs Cleansing and Strengthening that you use to build a strong respiratory system and help restore lung function if you are dealing with any respiratory infection or condition. #lungs #respiratory #breathe #4thofjuly #breathing

One thing about recognizing that #CovidIsNotOver is that when they issued an #air quality alert because of wildfire smoke, I had #N95 masks in easy reach.

The good thing about not having done anything in the garden for nearly a year (because I've only just returned from Sabbatical in Ireland) is that there is a certain wilderness which is so beautiful that I will just enjoy it and not plant or change anything until autumn.
