English term
she would settle back her shoulders and draw a deep, happy breath
ella relajaría los hombros y tomaría un profundo y feliz respiro... no creo que suene muy natural
Ojalá puedan ayudarme.
Gracias

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

perdón.. no se trata de suspiro:
(ella) acostumbraba/ solía enderezar su espalda y tomar una bocanada de aire profunda y feliz// inhalar profunda y felizmente/ alegremente
volvía a acomodar los hombros y daba un suspiro hondo y feliz
enderezaba la espalda y respiraba profundamente con felicidad/complacida
NOTA: el imperfecto ya equivale al "would", aunque se puede añadir "solía" si se quiere enfatizar la regularidad.
