Coherent Breathing: Find Your Inner Harmony
Coherent breathing, also known as resonant breathing, is a simple and powerful technique that can help you to synchronize your breath with your heart rate. This can have a profound effect on your physical and mental well-being.
How it works:
When you breathe at a rate of about 5-6 breaths per minute, your heart rate variability (HRV) increases. HRV is a measure of the variation in time between each heartbeat, and a higher HRV is associated with better health and resilience to stress.
Benefits:
- Reduces stress and anxiety
- Improves cardiovascular health
- Enhances focus and concentration
- Promotes a sense of calm and well-being
How to practice:
- Sit in a comfortable position.
- Inhale slowly through your nose for a count of 6.
- Exhale slowly through your nose for a count of 6.
- Continue for 5-10 minutes.
