This Increasing Your Exhale Meditation is a simple, science-backed breathing practice designed to calm your nervous system and bring your body out of stress mode. By gently lengthening the exhale, you signal safety to your brain, helping reduce anxiety, slow racing thoughts, and create a sense of ease in both body and mind. This meditation is ideal for moments of overwhelm, before sleep, after a stressful day, or anytime you need to reset and regulate your breath. You can practice seated, lying down, or wherever you feel most comfortable. ✨ Benefits of increasing your exhale: Activates the parasympathetic (calming) nervous system Reduces anxiety and stress Slows heart rate and breath Improves focus and emotional regulation No experience is needed. Simply follow along, breathe slowly, and allow each longer exhale to release tension and create space.
