The Breath
It is always with you.
It is an easy tool to help harness your own physiology.
Lets take a moment to practice working with breath intentionally.
Watch Dr Brie’s first Mindful Monday on Facebook and get a new technique you can use every day to bring mindfulness with you anywhere you go.
Controlled breathing has been shown to:
- Reduce stress
- Increase alertness
- Boost your immune system
- Reduce symptoms of anxiety, insomnia, PTSD, depression and ADHD
- Lower your cortisol (stress hormone)
- Lower your blood pressure
- Increase your parasympathetic tone (your rest and digest nervous system)
