Photo by @mentalhealthremix This is the one breathing technique I always try to remember when I'm really anxious. It has saved me from having an anxiety attack a few times. It scientifically works to switch your brain out of fight or flight mode. When you first try this technique it will feel like you can't breathe out to the count of 8, but just keep doing it and it will get easier. If I'm doing this to try to prevent an anxiety attack when I feel one coming on I usually do it for a few minutes straight. The really hard part is to even remember it when you are feeling that anxious, so it's good to practice doing it when you're feeling anxious but not to the level of an anxiety attack too. Please note that I am neither a scientist nor any kind of therapist or medical professional. I'm just sharing an important technique in my mental health toolkit from my own experience. I really hope that it can help you too!

I have found that my favorite breathing technique to calm my mind and body is the 4-7-8 method . A bit of science: inhalation activates our sympathetic ( fight or flight) nervous system and exhalation activates our parasympathetic ( rest and digest) nervous system. First, you blow out all the air, then breathe in through the nose for 4 seconds, hold for 7 seconds and breathe out through the mouth for 8 seconds. You can do this for 4 cycles. This technique ( longer exhalation! ) helps us achieve relaxation, reduce anxiety and improve digestion throughout our hectic day. #mindfulness #breathing #meditating #grounding #emotions #relaxation #indigestion #anxiety #depression #inflammation #presence #awareness #consciusness #coreintegrativedigestivewellness #wellbeing #nutrition #wellness #farazberjis #digestion #chronicdisease #digestivehealth #healthygut #guthealth #absorption #mentalhealth #life #478breathing #sympatheticnervoussystem #parasympatheticnervoussystem #stress

MEDITATION MONDAY

Research has shown that breathing exercises are beneficial to one’s mental health. In an experiment conducted by scientists in 2016, it was found that breathing exercises lead to improvements in motor abilities, heart rate, blood pressure, body composition, and cardiorespiratory function. Additionally, since stress is alleviated, it leads to improvements in one’s academic performance. These various factors have led many people to believe that the use of deep breathing exercises could lead to an improvement in stress management which could exert positive influences on the stressful conditions a person faces. As such, Meditation Mondays contribute to the querencia’s calendar objectives by giving different breathing exercises with detailed instructions and easy-to-follow illustrations.

We found great success at the recent convening of the Genius Network last week. We met with industry leaders and pioneers from every reach, and as a group found it cathartic sharing about the rollercoaster of entrepreneurship. (swipe right) Even better, Dr. Weil had the chance to speak about stress management, integrative wellness, and feature a special demonstration of his 4-7-8 breath technique. #geniusnetwork #hustle #entrepreneur #478breathing #joepolish #drweil #matchakari #matcha #integrativemedicine #andrewweil #matchaholic #businessowner https://www.instagram.com/p/B4kiKb5gb75/?igshid=gmh12pxjit2

Just Breathe. The holidays are full of wonderful things like friends, family and delicious treats. The holidays can also come with anxiety, stress and negative energy.

Day 2 of #30DaysMagickalRoots Grounding. Practice grounding today (and every day of the challenge)! What is your favorite way to do this? So here's the thing about this. I don't do it as often as I should. At one time my favorite was was imagining myself as a tree with roots burrowing into the Earth. Lately however I have take a more physical approach and done so via 4-7-8 breathing. With its calming affect it does the job quickly. And as an added bonus I go through 4 cycles of it as 4 is a grounding number! #DanausDivine #grounding #478breathing #numerology

New guided meditation available on the Serotonin Soundscapes YouTube channel to help you drift into a state of sleep relaxation to lower stress, overcome insomnia, reduce anxiety and allow for a deep restful sleep. Recorded by a Registered Clinical Psychologist, this sleep healing meditation uses the following techniques to help you achieve a state of deep sleep relaxation; 4 - 7 - 8 Breathing Breathing techniques are designed to bring the body into a state of deep relaxation. Specific patterns that involve holding the breath for a period of time allow your body to replenish its oxygen. From the lungs outward, techniques like 4-7-8 can give your organs and tissues a much-needed oxygen boost. Relaxation practices also help bring the body back into balance and regulate the fight-or-flight response we feel when we’re stressed. This is particularly helpful if you’re experiencing sleeplessness due to anxiety or worries about what happened today — or what might happen tomorrow. Swirling thoughts and concerns can keep us from being able to rest well. Progressive Muscular Relaxation (PMR) PMR is a non-pharmacological method of deep muscle relaxation, based on the premise that muscle tension is the body's psychological response to anxiety-provoking thoughts and that muscle relaxation blocks anxiety. It involves a series of exercises to help you feel calm (and is highly recommended if you have trouble sleeping). The more you do it the easier it becomes. Visualisation of a safe, calm space Imagine all the scents, sounds and sights of a calming place where you can enjoy relaxing in your mind. Focus on making your happy place feel real. This is a simple meditation technique which can help you release any worrying thoughts. Hope you enjoy 😊 #guidedmeditation #guidedmeditations #guidedmeditationsforsleep #sleeptips #insomniaproblems #sleepmusic #sleepless #sleepwell #sleepbetter #sleepaid #insomniarelief #soundscapes #beautifulmusic #meditation #meditationmusic #musicmeditation #zenmusic #calmmusic #musicforhealing #relaxmusic #soothingmusic #insomnia #stressrelief #anxietyrelief #sleepmeditation #sleeptraining #478breathing #bodyscan #pmr #relaxingmusic https://www.instagram.com/p/CEHA-bdhomo/?igshid=wao35b095uhl
