Breathe deep

TECHNIQUE AND INSTRUCTIONS

Mouth breathing is an instant way to de-stress. Sit comfortably in a chair with the head resting over the back of the chair. Let the face be turned upward as much as possible without discomfort. Close your eyes and slowly relax your facial muscles. Release the lower jaw, relax it so that the mouth opens a little. Now start breathing through your mouth in a natural manner. Inhale and exhale both through the mouth. The first few times you do this, you may find the breathing becoming faster. Don't worry. After some time, it will slow down on its own. The breath will go in and out very slowly. In fact, it will become so shallow that you can hardly feel your own breathing. Continue till you feel totally relaxed and refreshed.
