Purpose: This study, which used narrative inquiry method for experience of an elderly woman with anxiety symptoms who participated in the breathing meditation group program, sought to explore how breathing meditation experience was and what implications it has. Methods: For this, the study selected an elderly woman with anxiety symptoms among the participators in the breathing meditation group program carried out by the researcher. The study collected recorded contents of whole program process from May 2015 (when she first participated first) to March 2016 centered around her as well as pre and post interviews with her, daily log and meditation log. Used methodology was narrative inquiry of Clandinin & Connelly - one of qualitative research methods - and the procedures comprised three stages of entering the scene, text composition at the scene, research text composition from the scene text. Results: Contents of the research participator's experience were composed of 'the reason why I sought the breathing meditation', 'encounter with the breathing meditation', 'perceiving the length of breath and emotion control using breath', 'improvement on sleeplessness', 'decrease of the use of tranquilizers' and 'overcoming the recurrence of anxiety'. And the implications of the experience were 'anxiety, nervousness, worry - suffering', 'weak body and family safety - its cause, 'breathing meditation - emancipation' and 'change of life and future direction - the way'. Conclusion: This study might have its implications for that it extended the understanding of breathing meditation further by its analysis of vivid experience of an elderly woman with anxiety symptoms participating in the breathing meditation program in the context of the group instead of one to one individual counselling method.
