サマリー
Join us for a quick guide to the 4-7-8 breathing technique, a simple yet powerful exercise to calm your mind and body. In this episode, our host explains how to do it and leads you through a practice session to help you relax in just minutes. Perfect for stress relief on the go!
Scientific Basis for the 4-7-8 Breathing Technique
The 4-7-8 breathing technique, developed by Dr. Andrew Weil, is rooted in pranayama, an ancient yogic practice, and is designed to promote relaxation by regulating the autonomic nervous system. Inhaling for 4 seconds increases oxygen intake, holding the breath for 7 seconds allows for better oxygen absorption and slows the heart rate, while the 8-second exhalation stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system, reducing stress hormones like cortisol. Studies suggest controlled breathing lowers blood pressure, heart rate, and anxiety levels, enhancing mental clarity and emotional balance (Jerath et al., 2015; Zaccaro et al., 2018). This technique is effective for managing acute stress and improving sleep quality.
