4-6 Breathing for Stress: Inhale 4, Exhale 6

Показать описание

Enjoy this 4-6 breathing exercise for stress relief.

Exhale is longer than the inhale, which can gradually make you feel more calm and relaxed.

How to do 4-2-6 breathing:

Breathe in 4 seconds
Pause for 1 second
Breathe out 6 seconds
Pause again

You can breathe in and out through your nose, or you may find it easier to breathe out through your mouth like you are blowing out a candle.

Focus on breathing in easily and comfortably, rather than deeply.

You take 5 breaths per minute when doing this exercise.

The extended exhalation of 6 seconds promotes activation of the parasympathetic nervous system, inducing a state of relaxation and reducing the body's stress response.

The deliberate pauses in the breathing pattern enhance breath awareness, fostering a mindful connection between the body and mind.

Scientific studies suggest that this regulated breathing can positively influence heart rate variability, enhance oxygenation, and optimize the balance between sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system activity.

The synchronized, measured breath cycle in yoga thus becomes a powerful tool, not just for relaxation, but also for promoting overall well-being.
