Maruja, it may be as simple that your recent teacher noticed a need of more abdominal muscle engagement in your blowing (or more specifically, more use of your diaphragm muscle located roughly at the bottom of your lungs). If so, then it seems to me from your description that you responded well and that her counsel was successful.

Just continue "blowing from your belly", rather than from your chest? As already pointed out, do it regardless if you are playing loud or soft. Just ease the pressure from your abdomen for a softer volume, but never relax it completely as long as you are blowing.
