Sometimes life is really busy either in work or family life, so here is an easy breathing method.
This breathing trick is a really good way of collecting yourself in the face of strong emotion or stress and is quicker than, and more discreet than the three step breathing exercise.
Surreptitiously lift your hand to your face and press a finger against one side of your nose. Then just breathe deeply through the other nostril. Simple it may be, but the results can be quite speculative.
By halving the rate at which you breathe, you lower your blood pressure and trigger the body’s relaxation response, which is the opposite to its flight or fight response. This gives you a state of deep physical rest.
Change hands and press your finger against the other nostril to breathe in deeply. Repeat as many times as is necessary to gain a sense of calm.
It works every time
