It just felt naturally so I sitted with abdomen movements in background ,nothing happening ,from TMI I knowki got too much in peripheral awareness ,so I focused on abdoment movement and out consistently feel like trying to hold a ball underwater so I guess its correct. The mind slowed down and down .If im going not to much in shamatha side ? Can somebody give some advice ?

I never reached results with breath meditation, I followed Khenpo Sharab SenpoTibetan monk instructions, I don't know if I SE,but I expierenced Cessation and No I arises anymore, cause I never expierenced what Shinzen call God's Arrow. Idk.
So I recommend people to check out, who struggles with Breath Meditation this teacher
