Regulate your breath = regulate your emotions

Don’t let your emotions dictate your actions, instead let your actions dictate your emotions!All jokes aside. I want you to become serious about finally starting to use your breath for every life situation. I want you to start realizing, that the single most important tool you need in order to be in control of your emotions, your life and your reactions is your breath. So, when bad news comes along, before you do anything, before you blink and before you react in any way, BREATHE.  In this episode you are going to learn and experience about one of the easiest forms of controlled breathing techniques to regulate your breath and its immediate effects on the way you feel as well as the state it puts your mind and body in.Once you experience this, I promise, you will want to integrate it into your daily practice. And, “not enough time” is not the excuse here. Think about it, not only can you shorten the practice to as little as 5 minutes a day (although I do recommend to take 15 minutes if you can), but also, you can do it at any point during your day. So even if you are on your way to work, having a lunch break or sitting in the doctor’s waiting room – you have got your breath, you can modify to your preference, you can leave the 3-part breath and simply focus on box breathing into your belly. But of course, same as with any of our exercises, you have to start, you have to do the work. Imagine what you’d be capable of, when proactively regulating your own emotions: – make better decisions– have healthier relationships– improve your mental health– gain more confidence– manage stress better and experience greater professional success– find freedom by stopping to give power away, liberate yourself on the emotional level and become truly who you are, by choice, not by reaction. If you require additional guidance or find yourself left with unanswered questions regarding this practice, please connect with me on Instagram @whoiam.coach, send me a message and I promise, I’ll help you through it. Now find a comfortable space and let's begin.
