When in Doubt, Extend Your Exhales...

Breathwork is one of the most accessible ways we can regulate the nervous system and build resilience. It's something we can do anytime, anywhere, which I think of as sneaky self-care.

There are many breathwork practices to explore but 4:7:8 is a well researched practice to support with emotional regulation, stress management and sleep. 

A trauma-informed approach to more advanced breathwork practices, like 4:7:8, is to use a stair-step method to build up capacity for breath retention and extension. 

Using this stair-step method helps to build comfort and confidence within these practices, which is essential to building new habits. 

Click here for a video of a Grounding Breathwork practice that can be a helpful stair-step to a 4:7:8 breathwork practice. 

For more trauma-informed tips and resources, join me for my Ethics of Trauma-Informed Care Level 1 & 2 Training this spring! Self-paced and live workshop options available.

​May we all love the life we live...
