BREATH COACHING + A PRACTICE FOR YOU
Updates to the website will reflect our Breath Coach offering, SOON, and we are starting to work with Explorers already.
The breath gives us life.
It’s with us from the day we arrive into this body until the day we depart.
And we often give it little thought.
But there is so much more we can offer to, and receive from, the breath.
Breath Coaching can help address fatigue, anxiety, digestion, and more! Even just the practice of simply re-teaching ourselves to breath in the way we’re all made to breathe; from the diaphragm, can be incredibly profound!
If you’re interested in learning more about Breath Coaching, feel free to email us, or book a consultation today.
EXHALING THROUGH A STRAW
A simple practice that I’ve found to be super helpful for stress and anxiety - called, simply, exhaling through a straw.
No, we’re not exhaling through a literal straw.😆
A quick overview of this practice for you, in case you’d like to try it yourself!
Take a few moments, or minutes, to connect with the natural flow of your breath. Not changing anything at all; just bringing your awareness to it.
If possible, allow the breath to come in through the nostrils.
After a few moments, or minutes of just being with the natural flow of your breath; breathing in through the nostrils, purse the lips as if you were going to drink through a straw. Continue breathing naturally, inhaling through nostrils, and with each exhale, exhale out those pursed lips. Inhale nostrils, exhale pursed lips.
This is a great way to welcome the body into a parasympathetic, rest and digest state.
I find it to be very relaxing and supportive - I hope you do, too!
