How to Practice Mindful Breathing

Practicing mindful breathing is simple and can be easily incorporated into our daily routine. Here are some techniques you can try:

  • 4-7-8 Breathing: Inhale quietly through your nose for a count of 4. Hold your breath for a count of 7. Exhale forcefully through your mouth for a count of 8. Repeat this cycle.
  • Box Breathing: Inhale deeply for a count of 4. Hold your breath for a count of 4. Exhale slowly for a count of 4. Hold your breath for a count of 4. Repeat this pattern.
