Breathing that becomes slower and slower to calm the nervous system.
Sit or lay down if possible. Close your eyes, breathing slowly into your lower belly through your nose. Start your inhales and exhales at the 3 second count, and increase the length of both as feels right in the body.
By slowing down your breathing, you're sending a 'calm down' signal to your brain. This helps to reduce the production of stress hormones and activates your body's relaxation response.
Begin with normal, relaxed breathing, focusing on the rhythm.
Gradually make each breath slower and deeper.
