3 Simple Breath Work Techniques To Calm Your Mind In 3-5 Minutes

January 16, 2017

Breathing bypasses our conscious mind and belief systems, why it is crucial to master, if we really want to master life, health and happiness in this skin we are in. Breathing can change our biochemistry within in 3 short minutes. For every emotion, there is a corresponding breath rhythm, so if we can master our breath, we can master our emotional wellbeing and physical to a large degree.

  1. Alternate Nostril Breathing: Cools the mind and balances right and left brain hemisphere. Recommended for anxiety, addictions + anger management.
  2. Deep Abdominal Breathing: Grounding and supporting of our nervous system in order to feel calm and collected. Recommended for panic disorders, social phobia and when needing power/grounding/confidence/clarity.
  3. Breath of fire: Detoxes the mind of "toxic emotional waste" from yesterday and helps switch from sympathetic to parasympathetic state to recharge energy. Yes, it will feel demanding while doing it, but benefits that accumulate over time aka stress resilience, well worth the couple minutes effort needed to reap what you are sowing here. Recommended for emotional regulation, adrenal fatigue, tiredness and stress.

Don't Overthink It, Just Do It.

Every single day 3 minutes. Commit. This is a part of your mental hygiene routine and just as important as taking a shower everyday.

Most of us don't do it, because we can't "see it". Our breath changes our internal world and thus our external world gradually reflects the changes that are happening at the soul level. But we often get so impatient with things we cannot see instantly, that we spend all our time focusing on perfecting our image and shell and throwing our toxic thoughts and actions all over the place; affecting other people with our internal dirty laundry. So not pretty.

It has got to stop. We need to understand the part that each single one of us play in the world we want to live in. The values we want to see manifested into reality.

We Need To Become An Expression Of The Values We Long For.

There is no other way around it.

No one can save us from ourselves. Except us. And when we save ourselves, we send off a different level of vibration that makes for a completely different reality.

Everything Is Connected.
