Why this one
Back inside, we soften. On a heavy day the breath is the first thing to shorten — a few slow breaths are how you tell the body it’s safe.
How to do it
Lie down or sit comfortably and rest one hand on your belly. Breathe in slowly through the nose so the belly rises, then breathe out even more slowly. Let the exhale be the longer one.
Keep in mind
Nothing to achieve here — just longer, slower exhales.
Every move: lightly lift your pelvic floor — a gentle lift, never a clench — and breathe slow and full (hold the stretches for about 5 easy breaths, at least 30 seconds). New to the lift? →
