Binaural Breath For Calm, Unwind & Preparation For Sleep

So welcome to the session for deeper states of relaxation and sleep.

In this session we will be following three rounds of breathing,

With the third round being an extended round.

And the flow for this session will be seven seconds on the inhale,

Followed by a slight pause at the top,

Before we continue with seven seconds again on the exhale,

And again followed by a slight pause at the bottom.

If you feel that this is a little too long,

Or it becomes strained,

You can revert back to a simple breathing pattern of four seconds on the inhale,

And four seconds on the exhale,

Without the pause.

For the technique today we have the choice of simple nasal breathing,

Or if you are familiar with the technique,

I recommend that you follow the flow with the ujjayi breath,

Or ocean breath as it is sometimes known.

As with any session,

If you become uncomfortable at any point or your breathing becomes strained or labored,

Please just revert back to your natural breathing rhythm.

So if everything feels good,

And you are in a comfortable position,

We will begin the first of three rounds in three,

Two,

One.

Just release all control,

And if everything feels okay,

We will begin the final round in three,

Two,

One.
