The first thing is to become aware of your breath so before you try and change it in any way simply notice that you are breathing. So often when we feeling really stuck restricted or anxious then the breath either is very shallow We breathe high up in the neck in the chestWe use our chest muscles to breathe we're almost hyperventilating in a wayor we are like apneicYou know we holding our breath unconsciously and both of those patterns exacerbate that state or feeling now there are two options in that scenario either we can move in the direction that their breathalysers are going or we can break them which I imagine will be different for each clientyou work with.
