Breathing out the stress
Slow, purposeful breathing patterns,

roughly six breaths per minute, will
force your autonomic system (heart rate,

digestion, and other unconscious processes)
to slow down. Slow breathing changes brain
activity to decrease stress and anxiety and

generally makes us feel better.

• Inhale slowly through the nose all the
way in until you’ve reached your full lung
capacity. Hold the breath to the count

of five, exhale through the nose all the
way until your lungs are empty. On the

next breath increase the hold to six, then
seven all the way to ten.
• Repeat for as long as is helpful, until

you feel relaxed.
