Breathing Exercises
4-7-8 breathing exercise is an app that help you relax, sleep and reduce anxiety.
The 4-7-8 breathing technique is a breathing pattern developed by Dr. Andrew Weil. It’s based on an ancient yogic technique called pranayama, which helps practitioners gain control over their breathing.
When practiced regularly, it’s possible that this technique could help some people fall asleep in a shorter period of time.
The technique can achieve the following:
• reduce anxiety
• help you to get sleep
• managing cravings
• controlling or reducing anger responses
How to do it:
Before starting the breathing pattern, adopt a comfortable sitting or lying position
• empty the lungs of air, breathe in quietly through the nose for 4 seconds
• hold the breath for a count of 7 seconds
• exhale through the mouth, pursing the lips and making a "whoosh" sound, for 8 seconds
• repeat the cycle up to 4 times
