Breathing Technique for Stress and Anxiety

You can start either sitting, lying down, or while walking:

* Place the tongue behind the teeth on the soft tissue just behind the teeth. If you are hitting the roof of your mouth, you’ve gone too far.
* Breathe in through the nose for 4 counts
* Hold the breath for 7 counts
* Exhale the breath through your mouth, making a sound as you exhale for 8 counts
* Repeat the process for a total of 4 cycles

You will be amazed how good you feel after the 4th cycle! Click here to link to her newsletter for more helpful tips like “grounding thump”.
