Have you ever noticed how you breathe when you feel relaxed? The next time you are relaxed, take a moment to see how your body feels. Breathing exercises can help you relieve stress and relax.
Deep breathing is one of the best ways to relieve stress in the body. When you breathe deeply, it sends a message to your brain to calm down and relax. The brain then sends this message to your body, and things that happen when you are stressed, such as increased heart rate, fast breathing, and increased blood pressure, all decrease as you breathe deeply to relax.
Box breathing is a common technique used during meditation breathing, a prevalent method of finding mental focus and relaxation.
