Breath · 6 techniques
Set your own rhythm.
Your breath is the one part of your nervous system you can steer on purpose. Change how you breathe, and the rest follows.
- The Physiological Sigh Two inhales, one long exhale: the fastest in the toolkit.
- Box Breathing Four even counts, for a steady rhythm.
- Humming Breath A long hum on the out-breath.
- 4-7-8, 5-5 and Extended Exhale Slower rhythms for the hours after.
