Extending the Exhale | #351

In this episode, I guide you through a simple but profoundly calming lengthening-the-exhale practice. It's under ten minutes, yet it can make a significant shift in your body and mind by helping you down-regulate, settle, and soften states of wiredness or vigilance. I walk you through noticing your breath, tuning into where it moves, and observing its natural rhythm before gently encouraging the exhale to lengthen.

As I lead you through this process, I highlight how to stay within ease, how the inhale naturally responds to the exhale, and what to watch for so the practice remains supportive rather than straining. I also share considerations for practicing safely, recognizing signs of tension, and building your breathwork capacity with honesty and awareness. This is a practice you can return to anytime you need grounding or a moment to reconnect with yourself.
