DEEP BREATHING

Certain breathing exercises can help your body feel relaxed by relieving stress. Deep breathing stimulates relaxation and rejuvenation of the body by getting rid of stress as it sends a message to your brain to calm down and relax. It also detoxifies the body, improves immunity, etc. When your stress levels rise a hormone called “Cortisol” is released. By taking deep focused breaths, your heart rate slows, more oxygen enters your bloodstream and ultimately communicates to our brain to relax.
