February 17, 2022 10: Take a Breather
Stressed? Stop what you're doing and take a deep breath. You probably feel better already, right?
Breathwork encompasses various techniques that incorporate intentional use of the breath. Basically, you can learn to regulate the flow of breath to balance the body and mind. We asked former sportscaster turned certified breathwork and meditation coach and special needs mom and advocate, Tricia Chiongbian, to guide us through the importance of taking a proper breather - literally - especially when the going gets tough. Pro tip: light a candle while listening in.
Check out @livewithlight.trish on Instagram for more exercises and tips from Tricia.
