I've been working on this subject lately. I've always been very paranoid
that I didn't have enough breath to get through phrases. I think that in
response to that paranoia, I've always inhaled too much. In reading Richard
Miller's writings, I've come to the realisation that I don't need to do that.
Since I've calmed down my inhalations, I've noticed that I'm able to get
through longer and longer phrases.
It always amazes me how these things that we do that we think are going
to help don't. :-)
