There are many techniques available for stress relieve. But if you have to choose just one, we will opt for the technique where all your focus is on your breath.
We breath all the time so it is nothing new, but to use your breath to find stillness, you must be more careful and conscious about it.
Experts say that one of the most important things is to pay attention to the rhythm of your breathing.
If you start by taking short, quick breaths, try to move toward slower, deeper ones.
For example, you can take a 5-minute break from whatever it is you are doing and focus on your breathing instead.
Sit up straight, your eyes better be closed, and put one hand on your belly.
Then slowly inhale through your nose, feel your abdomen and work its way to the top of your head. As you exhale try to reverse the process as you exhale through your mouth.
It has been proven that deep breathing techniques can decrease blood pressure, reduce stress and promote relaxation by slowing the heart rate and lowering blood pressure.
Put your hand on your belly while you are breathing.
As you breathe you should feel it rise and expand as you draw air in, and fall as you let it out.
It is highly recommended to shoot for about six breaths a minute.
