Just Breathe

Stressed out this holiday season? Just Breathe! I like alternative nostril breathing to help calm a rapid heartbeat. It’s simple just,

Place your thumb down on one nostril, breathe in slowing through the other nostril, then exhale slowly through the same side.
Then, switch sides, by placing the pinkie down on the other nostril (be sure to release the thumb first), breathe in slowly and end by exhaling slowly.
Repeat this switching back and forth between the pinkie and thumb alternating nostril sides.
Heart rate should go down, you should feel more calm and your sinuses might actually be a bit more clear after this slow inhale and exhale breath!
