A 5-minute ‘Stress Melt’ breathwork with Audra featuring an 8-count box breath. This 8-count box breath works to calm the nervous system through controlled, rhythmic breathing. This practice balances your oxygen and carbon dioxide levels, helping to regulate your body's stress response and gently guide you from a state of tension into relaxation. The steady, deliberate pattern of inhaling, holding, exhaling, and holding again not only soothes the mind but also activates the parasympathetic nervous system, signaling to your body that it is safe to relax and reset. This practice is great for anyone in fight or flight but also works for anyone in freeze who wants to start gently bringing energy and life back into the body without overwhelming the nervous system further.
