À propos de cet audio

 Hey there, friend. I'm Julia Cartwright, and welcome back to Mindful Moments. I'm so glad you're here today. You know, it's late December, and I'm sensing that maybe you're feeling a little stretched thin right now. The holidays have that way of pulling us in a hundred directions at once, don't they? So today, I want to give you something simple but powerful, a breathing practice that'll feel like hitting the reset button on your nervous system. Just three minutes. You've got this.

So find yourself somewhere comfortable, even if it's just the corner of your couch or that chair by the window. Feet on the ground if you can. Take a moment to arrive here, to let your shoulders drop away from your ears. Good. Now, let's start with one long exhale. Breathe in naturally through your nose for a count of four, and then we're going to make that exhale really generous. Out for six. In for four, out for six. Feel that? That longer exhale is like opening a door and letting all the tension just walk right out. Do that three more times at your own pace. Beautiful.

Now, here's where we bring in the magic. I want you to imagine your breath like an ocean wave. As you inhale, that wave is rolling in, bringing fresh, cool air all the way down into your belly. Feel your ribs expand, feel your whole torso soften and open. Then as you exhale, that wave is rolling back out, carrying with it anything you don't need. Any worry, any tightness, any "I should be doing something else right now" feeling. Just let it go. Keep this rhythm going, breathing naturally but with intention. In through the nose if you can, out through the mouth with a gentle sigh. Notice how your body feels different already. That tight knot in your chest? It's loosening. That racing mind? It's starting to settle like snow coming to rest on a quiet field.

Continue with this wave breath for another minute or two, moving at whatever pace feels right for your body. There's no perfect way to do this. Your breath is exactly right as it is.

As we wrap up here, take one more deep breath together. And as you exhale, gently open your eyes if they've been closed. Notice how you feel. That calm you've created here, that's portable. You can return to this wave breath anytime today, even for just thirty seconds. At your desk, in the car, anywhere you need a reset.

Thank you so much for joining me on Mindful Moments Daily Breathing Exercises for Relaxation. If this practice landed for you, please subscribe so we can do this together again tomorrow. You're doing great.
