Step 1:
Sit, stand, or lye in a comfortable postion, so you can relax your shoulders, your forehead muscles and your eyes.
Step 2:
Taking a deep breath in, imagine that your tummy is a balloon you are trying to fill with air, slowly fill your tummy to a count of 4 and let your abdomen (tummy) rise. Hold your filled balloon like tummy for a count of 1.
Step 3:
Now slowly start to exhale all the air out of your balloon to a count of 6.
Repeat this breath cycle for 5 minutes to feel deeply relaxed.
TOP TIPS:
You might like to keep your hands on your tummy as you do this exercise so you can really feel the rise and fall of your tummy – this will help you stay focussed and connected to your breath.
Try and keep your chest as still as possible to allow the air to fully inflate and deflate your abdomen.
