Relaxation Breathing Exercises - How They Work and 3 Effective Techniques

In this video, we’ll talk about how relaxation and stress-relieving breathing techniques work and our 3 favorite techniques
• Box breathing
• 4-7-8 breathing
• "Sigh" technique
Also, we talk a couple additional points - breathing for about 5 minutes at a time and drinking a bit of water to stimulate the vagus nerve, and water will help to stay properly hydrated.
Practice these techniques and stay calm!

Please do, specially the 4-7-8 (or 4-7-9) technique to get asleep fast!

Very Insightful! Love your breathing videos, we use a 3-4-5 pattern in our sleep machine! We found it easier for people to follow for longer periods of time. Would love to hear your thoughts on our product!

Interesting! Where can I find or see your sleep machine?
