Belly Breathing
Are you struggling with BIG Feelings such as stress, rage, overwhelm, anxiety, or Mom Guilt?
Does it feel like no matter what you do, you are stuck in that big feeling even though you desperately want to get out?
The reason why feelings can be so intense is because we are having a body reaction. Our nervous systems are firing away.
In this video, you will learn how to leverage Belly Breathing to calm down.
Here is why it works:
The Vagus nerve is one of the largest nerves in our systems linking our brains to our bodies.
When we engage in deep belly breathing, we tickle the bottom of the Vagus nerve, which then sends a message to our brains that we are safe and all is okay. Then, our brains release hormones that help us calm down, and when we calm our rational brain comes back online and we can take more conscious action.
Watch the video and try belly breathing when you are in the heat of any BIG FEELING and let us know how it goes for you.
