4-7-8 Guided Breathing Exercise For Deep Relaxation (Anxiety & Insomnia Relief)

from Sleepy Cat Meditations · host Sleepy Cat Meditations

A warm welcome to this 4-7-8 breathing session, designed to help you find deep relaxation, and increase lung capacity. 4-7-8 breathing can be used as a natural sleep aid, calming down the entire body and nervous system, and it can also be used in the daytime to help find clarity and focus. NOTE: For this video, the 4-7-8 counting does not follow exact seconds, and the pace is a tiny bit quicker, to hopefully avoid you feeling overwhelmed by the exercise. In the future I hope to create a version that perhaps slows down as it goes on, allowing for even deeper breathing, and deeper relaxation. If that is something that appeals, please do let me know!
