Deep Calm: A Breathing Exercise For Instant Stress Relief

The 478 method, also known as the relaxing breath, is a technique developed by Dr. Andrew Weil and finds it's origin in pranayama. This method, when used correctly, can bring you to a relaxed state in a very short period of time. This practice will require you to focus on tongue placement as well as counting your breath. It is recommended that you do not exceed 8 cycles of this breathing style. After completing even 4, you will feel a significant difference in the way you feel. This technique acts as a natural tranquilizer for the nervous system and should be practiced twice daily for at least 30 days for it to become a natural practice. If this is done regularly, you will see a profound difference in your health and state of mind.
