Breathing can…
A few good breathes can disable your bodies stress response system and kick your relaxation response into gear. Breathing can:
• decrease heart rate and lower blood pressure
• decrease respiration and oxygen consumption
• increase blood supply to non-essential organs and systems including the digestive and immune systems
• decrease muscle tension
• increase slow brain, alpha waves associated with relaxation
Before you click away from this post - pause - take a two deep breathes. Feel better?
See how simple that was.
