Simple Breathing Exercise To Balance Your Emotions At Work

In this simple breathing exercise for work stress, you connect with your breath and learn to balance your energy and emotions in the moment. Sometimes when we feel off balance, we may feel overemotional, be reactive, read into things too deeply or be in a "fighting" mood.

This breathing practice is a simple technique that you can use at any time when you begin to feel off balance. It brings you back into your body through your breath. And as you follow along, you can continue even in your own time. Automatic, long, and rhythmic breathing. This allows you to be more present, grounded and feel at ease around stressful triggers.

Combined with the sounds of nature, a running stream of water, and a rain stick healing instrument. The background music is designed to help calm your nervous system with nature sounds.

Practice along as you inhale for 4 breaths and exhale for 4 breaths. The perfect quick breathing exercise for work or the home office during stressful moments.
