breathe freely
No more constraints
To breathe freely is to inhale without obstruction or difficulty, whether from physical relief or emotional release.
The phrase often marks escape from constraint: Once we left the city smog, I could finally breathe freely.
Figuratively, it describes feeling unburdened: With the debt paid off, she could breathe freely again.
