Season 1 Episode 39

Escape overwhelm and help calm the body with this breathing exercise focused on a long extended exhale. We'll inhale for a count of 2, pause for 2, exhale for 4, pause for 2 to 4 and repeat. The extended exhalation is meant to stimulate the vagus nerve and studies show stimulating the vagus nerve can send a message to your body that it's time to relax and de-stress. Sound refreshing?

May you breathe to relax and rest in these words today:

God’s spirit made me; the Almighty’s breath enlivens me.
- Job 33:4 CEB
