Five Count Breath for Nervous System Regulation
For The Feminine : Practices
•
18m
Your breath is one of the most potent tools you have to transform your energetic state. There are countless breathwork techniques, each carrying its own unique intention and power. However, many of these methods encourage us to breathe too fast or too deeply, disrupting the natural balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the body.
In this 10-minute breath practice from The Art of Sacred Intimacy, Cascais, Portugal, 2024, John guides you through a five-count breath practice designed to regulate your carbon dioxide levels and calm your nervous system, bringing you back to a state of grounded ease.
If you're ready to bring more calm and balance into your day, this practice will not only relax your body but also optimize brain and cardiovascular function, leaving you centered and clear.
If you have a question about this practice, or any of the content in The Embodied Relationship Experience, we highly encourage you to bring it to John during one of our monthly Office Hours calls that are included with your membership. You can find the dates and times of the upcoming calls here:
