Hello,
I'm Dennis and this is a short breath work relief.
It's a good practice to do before doing something that you're nervous or stressed about.
And you can do this lying down or standing.
So first we're gonna shake out the hands a little bit and the feet.
And then take a big breath in through the nose.
Exhale through the mouth.
No forcing on the exhale,
Just let it go.
And one more.
So after the next inhale,
You hold the breath in and then you tighten up the feet and the legs.
So take a big breath in and then hold the breath in,
Tighten up the feet and the legs.
And let go.
Exhale through the mouth.
Same thing again.
Hold the breath in,
Tighten up the feet and the legs.
And let go on the exhale.
And once again.
Tighten up the feet and the legs.
And let go.
And same thing again but tighten up the pelvic floor and the belly.
So take a big breath in,
Tighten up the pelvic floor and the belly.
And let go.
Once again.
One more time.
Tighten up the pelvic floor and the belly.
And let go.
And same thing again but you tighten up the chest and the shoulders and the neck.
You can hold out the arms if that feels right in your body.
So take a big breath in.
Tighten up the chest and the shoulders,
The neck.
And let go.
Same thing again.
And let go.
One more time.
And let go.
And the same procedure but you tighten up the whole body.
So all the body parts.
Take a big breath in through the nose.
Hold the breath in and tighten up the whole body.
And let go.
And again.
And let go.
And one more time.
And let go.
Shake out the hands and the feet again.
And now we're gonna do three physiological sighs.
So you do two inhales through the nose and then one long exhale through the mouth.
So breathing in through the nose.
And one on top of that.
And one long exhale.
Feel free to do sighs,
Yawning,
Any sound you like on the exhale.
And one more.
And now notice how you feel and how the energy in your body might have changed.
I wish you a lovely day and welcome back anytime.
