Stanford Medicine identified the cyclic sighing breathing practice to be one of the more effective breath techniques for improving mood, feelings of positivity, and reducing anxiety and stress. To do cyclic sighing, you will take two inhales followed by an extended exhale. The long exhale is what helps to signal to the body that it is okay to relax. I will guide you through a few rounds of the cyclic sighing and then you have some time and space to practice this on your own. Try this short 5 minute practice for the next thirty days and notice how it feels for you.
