Показать описание

Enjoy this 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 2 seconds
Breathe out 6 seconds
Pause again for 2 seconds

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 4.25 breaths per minute when doing this exercise.

The extended exhalation of 6 seconds can activate the parasympathetic nervous system, giving you a state of relaxation and reducing the body's stress response.
