Hello,
And welcome to another guided breathwork session.
Today,
We'll move through three rounds of powerful breathing using two techniques.
Beginning with a slow-paced superventilation,
Deep inhale filling up the belly and pulling it up into the chest with a relaxed exhale out.
The second technique will be an extended exhale,
Breathing in through the nose,
Not forcing the air,
And a relaxed extended exhale either through the nose or through pursed lips.
This session is aimed at cultivating a sense of safety and relaxation with slow,
Controlled breathing to engage the parasympathetic nervous system.
Each round will be separated with an exhale breath retention of 30 seconds,
Getting into a comfortable position wherever that may be.
Just arriving into your space in your body,
Closing down the eyes and letting out a sigh.
Let's get ready to begin in 3,
2,
1.
Deep breath into the belly,
Pulling it up into the chest,
Letting it go.
Take a deep breath in and hold.
Squeezing the body gently,
Tucking the chin,
Sending that energy up.
Release your breath.
Getting ready for round number 2.
Take a deep breath in,
Deeply into the belly,
Pulling it up into the chest,
Release it.
Hold,
Squeezing the body,
Tucking the chin,
Sending the energy up.
Release it.
Hold,
Extended exhales.
Slow,
Deep breath in,
2,
3,
4.
Take a recovery breath in and hold.
Squeezing the body gently,
Tucking the chin,
Sending the energy up your spine.
Let it go.
Taking a gentle sip through the nose,
Letting it out with a sigh.
Returning to your natural flow of breathing,
In and out through the nose.
Allowing some slow movement into the body as you go about your day feeling safe and confident.
Thank you for breathing with us today.
Remember to breathe deeply and live fully.
See you next time.
