Physiological Sighs

Instructions for the leader

Gather the group in a quiet, comfortable space, lying down. Guide participants to take two deep, maximum inhalations through the nose (one right after the other). Follow the inhalations with a slow, complete exhale through the mouth. Demonstrate clearly: Inhale deeply, pause, inhale again to top it off, then exhale slowly. Lead 10 rounds, encouraging participants to close their eyes and fully relax.
