Have you ever wondered how your way of breathing impacts your mood and energy? Have you ever thought about why breaths are so important in meditation, in calming ourselves when we’re in panic, in shaking off negative thoughts? Breathing is more than just taking in oxygenized air and puffing out carbon waste. It’s an integral tool in preparing your body and mind for your daily activities. 

In this episode of On Purpose, Jay Shetty teaches us different breathing techniques we can easily incorporate in our lives to help improve energy and reduce stress.

  • 00:00 Intro

  • 08:25 Habit #1: The 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 technique
