Life is in the breath

'Life is in the breath; therefore he who only half-breathes, half lives'
When I become mindful of how i am breathing, and so often find that i am only half breathing, or even worse, to the point where i am barely even breathing at all it seems. I feel like this is attributed to the fact that i am very unaware of my body at times and too caught up in what i am doing, and also maybe a bit anxious. In meditation, i of course focus on my breath very mindfully and I am breathing slowly, deeply and fully, but the real practise is too bring this in to daily life... because basically i dont wan't to "half-live" through all the time i am not meditating.
