COURSE

Reduce Anxiety And Stress In Real Time

With Hilary Heart

Within this short course you will discover 3 great breathing techniques & the science behind them that can bring calmness to you in real time. This means that if you are feeling stressed or anxious there's no need to disengage from whatever you are doing, you can just carry on. Many situations can stress us out from presentations to plane travel to MRI machines, exams to first dates and more. So, learning breathing techniques to calm our nervous system can save us from unnecessary anxiety. Wherever you are, you can simply change the pattern of your breathing and immediately begin the process of reducing stress and anxiety. There are dozens of breathing techniques & patterns that can help reduce stress and anxiety but here I offer my top 3 which are popular and effective with my clients. These are 7/11 breathing, bee breathing … my personal favourite…… and the physiological sigh. I describe the science behind each one and citations where appropriate and urge you to try all 3 because the proof is in the pudding!
