The Physiological Sigh: A Very Short Breathing Exercise
Hi, it’s Jess. Welcome to this very short breathing exercise.
The purpose of this tool is to slow your heart rate and calm your nervous system. It’s called the physiological sigh, and I learned it through Dr. Andrew Huberman of the Huberman Lab podcast. Huberman describes it as the fastest real-time stress reduction tool we know of so far.
If you’d like to go deeper, his resources on his podcast are wonderful.
I’ll guide you through it, and it’ll take about less than a minute. You can sit down or stand, whatever feels more comfortable for you.
