In this practice, you will have a sighing breath which is a highly effective coping mechanism for bringing down stress. Stanford neuroscientist Andrew Huberman researched the effects of the Cyclic Sighing Breath. His studies showed that participants doing this breath for 5 minutes a day felt happier and more relaxed as compared to other breathing and mindful practices. One of the best ways that you can stimulate the healthy function of the vagus nerve is through deep slow diaphragmic breathing.
