À propos de cet audio

Hey there, I'm Julia Cartwright, and I'm so glad you've carved out this moment for yourself today. Whether you're squeezing this in between meetings, before the chaos of your evening kicks off, or you're just trying to find a little island of calm in your day, you're exactly where you need to be right now. I know the end of November can feel like that final push before everything accelerates, and your nervous system might be running on fumes. So let's change that together.

Find a comfortable seat, somewhere you won't be disturbed for the next few minutes. You can be on your couch, at your desk, or even in your car during lunch. This is your space. Let your shoulders drop away from your ears, and gently close your eyes if that feels right. There's no performance happening here, just you and your breath, which is honestly the best company you could ask for.

Now, I want to introduce you to what I call the Ocean Wave breath, and it's about to become your new favorite way to dial down the intensity. Here's how it works. Breathe in slowly through your nose for a count of four, feeling the air fill your belly like the tide rolling in, expanding everything. Hold it there for a gentle count of four, just resting at the top. Then exhale through your mouth for six counts, like you're watching the waves retreat slowly back out to sea. Notice how the exhale is longer? That's the magic. That extended exhale activates your parasympathetic nervous system, the part of you that knows how to actually relax.

Let's do this together. Inhale for four, two, three, four. Hold, two, three, four. Now exhale slowly for six, five, four, three, two, one. Beautiful. Let's continue this rhythm for a few more minutes. Find your own pace, adjusting the counts slightly if you need to. Maybe it's three and five, maybe it's five and seven. What matters is that exhale being longer than the inhale. That's your signal to the body that everything is safe.

As you settle into this pattern, imagine each exhale releasing something you don't need today. Tension, worry, that conversation you're replaying in your head. Just let it float away like clouds.

When you're ready, begin to slow your breath down to normal. Wiggle your fingers and toes gently, and when you're ready, open your eyes. Here's your takeaway for today, try this Ocean Wave breath before your next big moment. Before a difficult conversation, before bed, whenever you need that quick reset. Three rounds takes less than two minutes and works every single time.
