Star Breathing
Let your breathing flow with a star shape
Directions
Trace a star in the air or on paper. As your finger moves towards the point of the star, breathe in through your nose. Then as your finger moves towards the center of the star, breathe out through your mouth. Go slowly around the star.
How It Helps
Breathing while tracing something helps synchronize your breath and calm your body.
Research shows that rhythmic breathing techniques can reduce stress and promote relaxation by regulating the nervous system.
Tip
If you start to feel dizzy or lightheaded, stop right away.
