- Three rounds of breathing exercises
- Deep circular breaths followed by breath-hold
- Promotes relaxation and body awareness
Introduction
The session begins with a welcome and an invitation to relax deeply, either lying down or sitting. The instructor prepares participants for a guided breathing exercise.
Round One
The first round starts with a series of deep, circular breaths, inhaling fully into the belly and chest, then exhaling without pause. Participants are instructed to maintain a continuous flow of breath, with no pause between inhalation and exhalation. After several breaths, participants hold their breath for one minute, focusing on relaxation and body awareness, slowing down heartbeat. They are given the option to prolong their breath hold. After the breath hold, a recovery breath is taken and held for 15 seconds before exhaling.
Round Two
The second round mirrors the first, with deep, circular breaths, emphasizing inhaling peace and exhaling stress. After the breathing phase, participants hold their breath for one and a half minutes, focusing on body sensations like tingling in hands and feet, and changes in body temperature. Participants are given the option to prolong their breath hold. A recovery breath is then taken and held for 15 seconds before exhaling.
Round Three
The third round continues the pattern of deep, circular breaths, focusing on relaxation and stress release. Following the breathing, participants hold their breath for one and a half minutes, becoming aware of their heartbeat and blood flow. Participants are given the option to prolong their breath hold. A recovery breath is taken and held for 15 seconds before a final exhalation.
Conclusion
The session concludes with instructions to allow breathing to return to normal and to gradually move the body. The instructor promotes a free app available on their website for more guided sessions and extends wishes for a good night, day, and life.
