Just Fit In A Little Bit
Train yourself to take long, slow, deep breaths through the nose whenever you can just do a few breaths.
Put little post-it notes everywhere or schedule it on your phone. “Mini & frequent” deep breathing centers yourself and massages the vagus nerve, calming your nervous system.
Regular, longer breathing sessions are great, but real long-term benefits come when breathing long, slow, and deeply through your nose is second-nature, a frequent habit.
Breathe when you are:
in the car at a light
on the toilet
doing laundry
listening to someone
walking the dog
reading a book
cooking
watching tv
doing emails
anytime
a lot
