Breathe, Misha
Some mornings come in loud — crumpled assignments, lunch mix-ups, and a hairstyle with more attitude than control. And for Misha, this is one of those mornings.
At the street corner on the way to the bus stop, she’s in full meltdown mode.
Zara? She’s weirdly calm.
After learning to slow her breath and calm her belly (see Zara Tries Pranayama), Zara now has a secret weapon: deep, belly-filling, signal-to-your-gut “you’re safe” kind of breath. And while Misha spirals, Zara offers a quiet, confident reminder: “Your gut listens to how you breathe.”
But breathwork isn’t exactly easy to sell to someone sweating through her socks.
This strip isn’t just a comic reminder that calm can be contagious — it’s a relatable glimpse into how stress manifests in our bodies (and bellies), and how a deep breath doesn’t fix everything, but it helps you face it.
