By focusing on the inhalation we stimulate our sympathetic nervous system which prepares us for action, more blood is pumped to the brain and to the limbs and we feel a burst of energy throughout our body. We combine this with box breathing, a proven technique used to give a mental sharpness and cognitive balance. Enjoy.

Welcome to this session.

My name is Emil and I will be your guide.

This session is a great one to do before a workout or when you need to perform physically since we combine hyperventilation with box breathing to give you that energy flow,

That boost in the heart rate,

But also to give you that focus and mental sharpness,

To give you that extra edge.

So let's get into it.

We will begin by breathing in to two,

In through the nose,

Breathing out through the mouth to one.

So just follow along.

Breathing in,

Breathing out.

And out,

And hold.

Just keep holding for a little bit.

Slowly building up that CO2.

And taking a deep inhale.

Holding with filled lungs.

And letting go.

Great job.

Great job.

I hope you feel energized,

Focused,

And good luck.

And good luck with the workout.
