Breathwork for Calming Panic

How we breathe affects how we feel, and how we feel affects how we breathe, so when we're experiencing panic, high stress, or overwhelm, our breath will be short, shallow, and rapid. In this practice, I'll guide you to relax your body away from tension and the fight/flight response so you can slow, soften, and deepen your breath over several rounds. You'll viscerally override the panic signals being sent around the brain and body and learn how to overcome feelings that threaten to overwhelm you. If you're coming to this after an initial practice or need an SOS response to get straight into the breath work, feel free to skip the body relaxation and head straight to the 6' mark.
