Curated by Heather Rafanello, MSW, LCSW - this breathing exercise is a great coping skill to add to your toolbox for times of heightened anxiety, stress, anger, or and more. This tool increases your exhalation, resulting in an activated parasympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for establishing homeostasis and balance. The parasympathetic nervous system helps to calm the body during heightened states, therefore by increasing the length of your exhale, and decreasing the length of an inhale, we are working to send the message to our body that we are safe, and we are okay.
