The "Exploring Coherence Breathing: Pranayama Harmony" technique guides individuals through the practice of coherence breathing, also known as Pranayama. It involves slowing down the breath rate, with specific inhalation and exhalation ratios to align the heart rate, blood pressure, and brainwave activity. The script encourages a comfortable seated position, hands on the belly for awareness, and emphasizes the benefits of coherence breathing, such as decreased anxiety, improved sleep, and increased resilience. The practice leads to a state of inner calm and balance.

Welcome to Coherence Breathing,

Pranayama,

Breathing Technique.

Coherence Breathing invites peace and harmony into your being.

Find a comfortable position,

Seated or lying down,

And let's embark on this journey together.

Begin by taking a moment to settle into your chosen position.

Allow your body to relax,

And if you feel comfortable,

Close your eyes.

Alternatively,

You can keep them softly open.

Place your hands gently on your belly,

Creating a connection with your breath.

This simple touch allows you to feel the natural rise and fall as you breathe.

Now,

Let's dive into Coherence Breathing.

Inhale slowly for a count of four,

Allowing your belly to expand like a gentle wave.

Exhale for a count of five,

Feeling your belly gently draw in.

Inhale for four,

Exhale for five.

Let the breath flow effortlessly.

Continue at your own pace,

Embracing each breath with mindfulness.

Inhale,

Belly expanding on four.

Exhale,

Belly drawing in for five.

Feel the rhythm,

The serenity within each breath.

Continue for a few more breaths,

Creating a beautiful harmony between your breath and awareness.

Now,

Release the breath pattern.

Place your hands on your knees,

Relax,

And simply be in the stillness.

Let your breath return to its natural rhythm.

With regular practice of Coherence Breathing,

You'll discover a calming anchor within you.

Anytime stress or anxiety arises,

A few moments of Coherence Breathing can bring instant calmness to your nervous system.

Take this peace with you throughout your day,

And may the serenity of Coherence Breathing be a constant companion on your journey.

Thank you for joining in this mindful moment.
