Breathwork: 7/11 Breathing

The key to calming the mind and body is longer exhalations. Hilary shares this simple and ancient breathing technique and explains the science behind it. "When your exhale is longer than your inhale, the vagus nerve sends a signal to your brain to turn up your parasympathetic nervous system and turn down your sympathetic nervous system. In other words when your exhalations are longer than your inhalations the nervous system is soothed and you become calmer."

Thankyou Hilary for providing another breathing ‘ gem 💎’
I like that there is science behind this technique and it gives results within 3 minutes.
We have everything within ourselves that we need, if we are taught how to use them. 🌷💚🌷

Very calming. Appreciate the science behind it as well. Good tool for mental peace and clarity.

Really clear and compelling explanation of why it works, with citations!

Thanks for this. Easy to remember remember because of the convenience store! And it does seem to work. 🙏

Thank you! That was really nice! I liked the way you explained everything, in addition to the practise.
