Using your breathe to measure out your movement is an incredibly meditative practice.  In this episode I challenge you to keep moving for the full length of both the inhale and the exhale.  Be aware that your legs will want to return to the starting position before the arms shoulders because they have a shorter distance to travel.  So when you are inhaling and bending into your Squat be sure that you don't hold the motion and continue to inhale.  If you are inhaling you are still moving into the depth of the squat.  The same is true of the exhale.  If you are still exhaling you should have not stopped moving.  I repeat: Specifically the exhale you may find yourself returning to the start position prior to the completion of the full exhale.  You may still be moving your arms/shoulders but your legs will have already returned to standing tall with  no motion.
