Meditation
5-Minute Stress Release
Paced breathing & body softening · 5 min
Before you begin
- Keep the breath smooth; shorten or skip the hold if it feels effortful.
- If you feel dizzy or uneasy, return to natural breathing.
Not a substitute for medical advice.
A short reset for any part of the day. You follow a paced breath of inhale 4 · hold 4 · exhale 6, then soften the body from the forehead to the feet. A minute of quiet rest closes the practice. Sit or stand wherever you are.
What it supports
- Supports a calmer state in a few minutes
- Helps release tension held in the face, shoulders and belly
- Brings you back to the present moment
