3. BREATHE 4-7-8

Take a few deep breaths. Self-care starts by taking a mindful breath: inhale then exhale.

Try the 4-7-8 breathing technique, also known as “relaxing breath".

-Hold the breath for 7 seconds

-Exhale for 8 seconds

 

You can meditate and just focus on counting your breaths.

We are fans of Abraham Hicks, here is an excerpt from her: “There are two things that we were encourage you to do, in terms of action. Sit every day for 15 minutes with the intention of filling your body full of air. Breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe. Breathe. Just breathe. That’s your assignment, 15 minutes of breathing, 15 minutes of in and out, in and out, and appreciation for this delicious oxygen…if you would just do that your chaotic world would smooth right out.”
