AbdominalMIND HEALTHY breathing is a very simple but effective relaxation technique for reducing stress.
Breathing to Relax
It involves taking a deep breath through your nose until you feel your abdomen rising and then exhaling completely until you feel your abdomen falling. Repeat this cycle several times and you will begin to feel relaxed as it slows your racing heart and calms your raging emotions. Abdominal breathing is a discrete technique that can be done anywhere. Therefore breathe deeply in traffic jams, at the office, in the middle of arguments or when you need to think clearly and perform efficiently under pressure.
