Tip of the Day: Take a Deep Breath

Deep breathing is simple but effective. People can do it anywhere, while sitting, standing up, or lying down.

To deep breathe, a person can:

💚Relax the tummy.

💚Place one hand just beneath the ribs.

💚Breathe in slowly and deeply through the nose, noticing the hand rise.

💚Breathe out through the mouth, noticing the hand fall.
