The healing process of past wounds or overwhelming emotions, it’s helpful to take deep, conscious, mindful breaths throughout the day as you need it to be compassionate to yourself. As you experience relief, your natural response is to take a deep breath, releasing tension and triggering the release of endorphins. You can use breath as a source of dopamine amplifying for your well-being.
Diaphragmatic breathing, also known as deep belly breathing, is the foundation of proper breathing, especially for chest breathers. Doing deep belly breathing helps stay calm and centered. Incorporation of diaphragmatic breathing into your daily routine can naturally lead you into meditation. This infused breathing can deepen relaxation, helping activate your body’s parasympathetic nervous system responsible for ” rest and digest”. Over time, you may notice reduced stress, anxiety and increased patience.
