This 3-minute slow breathing practice is excellent for those facing anxiety, stress, or insomnia and seeking a fast and effective way to enter a state of relaxation and calmness. I recommend using headphones for a higher quality experience.

Transcript

Overthinking is only going to make things worse.

Forget the outside world.

You can find the remedy within.

Take a few minutes to nurture yourself.

To calm down your mind and release any tension you may be feeling in your body.

Forget the external.

Now is my time.

Silently repeat that to yourself.

Forget the external.

Now is my time.

Forget the external.

Now is my time.

Now focus all of your attention on your breath.

Inhale gently through your nose into your abdomen.

As you exhale allow yourself to relax and release any tension you feel.

Continue to breathe this way.

Slow and gentle.

There is nowhere else to be.

But here and now.

Slow and controlled inhales and exhales.

Breathe into your abdomen.

Inhale into your abdomen and on the exhale let it all go.

Slow down your breath.

Slow down your breath and observe your abdomen rise and fall.

Slow down your breath even more.

Observe your abdomen rise and fall.

Rise and fall.

Slow down your breath as much as you can.

Notice how much better you feel after only a few breaths.

The mind and body are merging.

You feel more tranquil.

When you slow down your breath you slow down your mind.

Whenever you feel anxious or stressed remember to connect with your breath.

It is always there waiting for you.

Thank you for joining this breathing session.
