Thank you for joining this 478 breathing practice.
Please bring your awareness to your overall state of mind.
Accept it for what it is at this moment.
We will check in again after we complete four rounds of the breathing technique.
Then we'll complete another optional second four rounds.
Make sure that you are in a place where you can achieve deep relaxation.
Focus on taking your inhalations with a slow controlled breath.
You will hold for seven seconds and then release for the eight count.
Close your eyes and concentrate on your breath with the intent to inhale through your nose and exhale through your mouth with a steady controlled breath.
To enhance the technique,
Rest the tip of your tongue against the roof of your mouth behind your front teeth.
Keep your tongue in place throughout the entire practice.
Before we start,
First let's take one long clarifying in breath through the nose and exhale for the same count through the mouth.

Continue to breathe normally but if you need to continue to relax try to ensure that your breath is the same length on your inhale as it is on your exhale.
