4 4 breathing tool
Need a calming breath guide you can loop on your phone?
This visual tool helps gently regulate your nervous system and it’s part of a free download series so you’ve got breathing aids ready when stress hits.
TIP: Right-click and press LOOP to keep it playing!
You can start with a 3-3 pace if 4-4 feels too much and when you're ready, slow it down to deepen the effect.
HOW TO DO IT
Shift your breath down your torso to breathe from your abdomen, or imagine filling the space under your diaphragm at the bottom of your lungs. Put your hand on the area if it helps.
1) Exhale and relax any tension in your body
2) Take a slow breath from your diaphragm in through your mouth, nose, or one nostril for a count of 4 following the visual aid
3) Pause for a second
4) Exhale through an open mouth or pursed lips
5) Pause for a second and repeat
