THE BREATH

Starting Position: Come to sit in Mountain Pose.

Movement: Take a slow and steady inhale through your nose, and a slow, steady exhale out your mouth. Don’t force the breath. Try to make the exhale last as long as the inhale. You can start with a count of two on the inhale and a count of two on the exhale. If you can make each inhale and exhale longer, say a count of three to four, then go for it.

Repetitions: Take four complete breaths. Remember, slow and steady.

Benefits: This type of breathing calms the nervous system and reduces anxiety. It prepares your body to move.
