How To Navigate Your Breath In Stressful Times

Do you have days where you can hardly take a deep breath and your whole body feels tense? This 10-day course will help you better understand daily feelings of overwhelm and the proven ways to cope. We explore breathing in a conscious and regulated way, as well as methods for focusing the mind on breath rather than agonizing over the past or striving to control the future. Give your nervous system a breath of fresh air and send your body and brain more intelligent messages. In this course, each day’s lesson (on some aspect of science or Buddhist philosophy) is paired with a meditation and a breathing practice to quell the anxious mind and become completely present. Switching off the overdrive is sometimes the most productive thing we can do for our personal health, our relationships and work life. It all begins right now, with your breath.

This course was absolutely exactly what I needed. I could see where Ive been holding on and work with it instead of getting too uncomfortable and running away. Thank you so much for these wonderful tools to manage my anxiety. 🌈🌸🌻✨

Wonderful course. Practical breathwork, body scan, and meditation advice.

Know I’ll return to this course often.

Thank you so much for this course. I don't have to be perfect. I will be calm confident and strong. Breathe, pause and look at the world.
Every day like it's the first time you've seen it! Just a few things i'm thinking on after taking this course.

Thank you for this course. This is a course I can return over and over again.

There were so many takeaways in this course. At the end of the course the teacher mentions that “life IS the practice” and I thought that was profound. Also, her voice is very soothing.

Beautifully put together course. I’ll continue your courses!

Such a wonderfully beautiful message that needs to be heard by more. I found my a hah moments numerous ways and in different session but the deep center point for me was finding stillness and calm in the breath work.

I’ve done many courses on Insight Timer, and this is truly among the best I’ve encountered. Thank you for so many tools and nurturing guidance through the last 10 days.

Thanks Carolyn for a well structured and helpful course.🙏

What a pleasant journey your guidance brought me. As many of us, I am going through hardships. Listening and practicing the exercises helped me to realize that I can accept things out of my control while being kind and gentle to myself. Thank you so very much. I saved this course as favourite and will come back to refresh the learnings. Life is a work in progress. Namaste, Carolyn. ❤ 💙 💜

The teacher had a calm voice that was grounding. She also offered practical tips.

What a lovely course. So good to concentrate on the why, the mechanics, and to practice the joy of breathing so I can permeate the day's triggers with regulation.

I found this course balanced with good information, advice, reminders, and many helpful practices. Thank you!
