When stress hits, try a physiological sigh:
1. Inhale through your nose.
2. Take a second, smaller inhale.
3. Slowly exhale through your mouth.
That second inhale helps expand the lungs, while the long exhale signals your body that it may be safe to slow down.
Try 2–3 rounds and notice what changes.
You don't always need to think your way out of stress. Sometimes, you can breathe your way toward regulation. 🧠🌿
