Dr Andrew Weil introduces us to a breathing practice that will help you sleep… and calm your mind when you are triggered.
I call it 4,7,8, letting go breath.
Make it a habit and see the difference over time.💤💤💤

Life is a series of highs and lows. Be grateful in the highs. Be graceful in the lows. Find contentment in your Middle Ground
Thanks for that Val. I have heard references to it before but it was great to see it demonstrated and have the chance to practise it 🙂 zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

It was Dr Weil, in around 2009, who taught me how to breathe and relax. Within 3 months practice, I could drop my high BP by up to 40 points (by 5 minutes deep breathing).

I tried it last night and it (or was it the trypophan in the turkey? 😉 ) worked wonderfully – slept very well. 🙂
