di MYJO Media
Let’s begin with a simple exercise to connect with your breath. Find a comfortable position, either seated or lying down. Close your eyes if you feel comfortable. Take a deep breath in through your nose for a count of four… 1, 2, 3, 4… Hold it for a count of four… and now exhale slowly through your mouth for a count of six… 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. Let’s repeat this two more times. Feel your body begin to relax with each cycle.
Let’s try a box breathing exercise together. Sit up straight and place your feet flat on the ground. Inhale deeply through your nose for a count of four… 1, 2, 3, 4. Hold your breath for a count of four… 1, 2, 3, 4. Exhale through your mouth for a count of four… 1, 2, 3, 4. Hold again for four… 1, 2, 3, 4. Let’s repeat this cycle three more times. As you breathe, notice the calm settling into your body and mind.
