Your nervous system responds faster than your thoughts.
A single slow exhale begins shifting your physiology out of threat and into clarity.
Practice:
• Inhale through the nose for 4
• Exhale through the nose for 6
• Repeat for 60 seconds
• Keep your shoulders low and jaw soft
Why this matters: A longer exhale activates the parasympathetic system and reduces physiological arousal within seconds.
Use it today: Right before a meeting, message, or decision.
Do this, and let us know how it felt?
