Welcome to 4-7-8 Breathing Meditation featuring Marcus! This beginner-friendly exercise utilizes the 4-7-8 breathing technique, which has been shown to calm the nervous system and relieve stress. Our heart rates increase when we inhale and slow when we exhale, so by extending each exhalation throughout this exercise, our heart rate will slow and our stress hormones can begin to drop. All you need for this exercise is a quiet space and yourself!
Namaste!
