DECEMBER BREATH WORK CHALLENGE - DAY 7
Today's focus is on relaxation. We will do 7 mins of the following breathing technique (morning and afternoon or in response to a stressor):
4 second inhale
5 second hold
6 second hum with your mouth closed ( you should be allowing the air to exhale through your nose as you hum, you will feel a vibration in the back of your throat)
Humming is important in breath work practice to help stimulate the vagus nerve, which activates the parasympathetic nervous system, leading to relaxation, stress reduction, improved mood, and potentially even better breathing and cardiovascular health by increasing nitric oxide production in the nasal passages; essentially putting your body into a "rest and digest" state.
