🌿 Try this when you’re feeling stressed
Your breath is something you carry with you everywhere — and it can be a simple way to support your nervous system when life feels a little too much.
Try this:
🌬️ Inhale gently through your nose for 4 counts
🌬️ Exhale slowly for 6 counts
Repeat for 5 rounds.
Then pause for a moment and notice how you feel.
A slightly longer, slower exhale can encourage your body towards a more settled state by supporting the parasympathetic nervous system — the part of your nervous system associated with rest and recovery.
You don’t need to force your breath or take huge breaths.
Just breathe gently, comfortably and with curiosity.
Sometimes, a few intentional breaths are enough to create a little more space between what’s happening around you and how you respond to it. 🌿
