Exhale for longer (DW#679)
We have all heard the term: take a deep breath when you are stressed. And so, we do. And wonder why it does not work to calm us down.
It is because we only focus on the inbreath and do not pay attention to the outbreath.
If we are not exhaling properly, not only can we not calm down, we are also not detoxifying fully. Did you know that breathing is responsible for 70% of our body’s detoxification? Compared to this, elimination and sweat only take care of only 30%!
And when we do not detoxify properly, we are not fueling our cells properly. This pattern results in compromised wellbeing on many different levels.
So, go ahead: squeeze your diaphragm. Make sure to get all the air out before your next inbreath. Focus on the exhale and the inhale will almost take care of itself.
