In the Buddha's own instructions for Breath Meditation (Anapanasati), the third step is:

"Sabba-kaya-patisamvedi assasissami/passasissamit ti sikkhati"

"One trains oneself to breathe in/out feeling the whole body"

Ajahn Dhammasiha offers reflections on the meaning of this step, and how to cultivate it in one's own meditation.
