Exhale for destress tool 🧠

Physiological sighs, occurring naturally every five minutes during sleep or wakefulness, involve re-inflating the lungs to allow oxygen to enter the bloodstream effectively. Stress, under-breathing, or over-breathing can cause the collapse of millions of tiny lung sacks, hindering oxygen intake.
