I will focus on slowing down, breathing deeply, and trying to "feel" it.
The way you breathe helps you to relax.

When you inhale don't expand the chest but expand the belly.

Inhale through the nose and exhale through the mouth.

Make your exhale twice as long as you inhale ( inhale count one two, exhale count one two three four).

When uke attacks inhale, when you do the technique exhale throughout the whole technique.

Good Luck

Go ahead, tread on me.
