Breathwork is the practice of becoming aware of your breathing in a calm and intentional way. Rather than forcing deep breaths, breathwork encourages natural breathing and gentle observation.
By paying attention to the breath, many people find it easier to slow down, relax, and reconnect with the present moment.
Most people breathe automatically without noticing it. When stress increases, breathing often becomes shallow or rushed. Conscious breathing helps bring awareness back to the body, which may support relaxation and mental clarity.
Sit comfortably and inhale slowly through your nose.
Gently exhale through your mouth.
Notice how the air feels as it moves in and out.
Even a few minutes of awareness is enough.
Never force your breath. Stop immediately if you feel dizzy or uncomfortable. Practice only in a safe, calm environment.
