Calming Me, Calming You

Today, we’re learning how to access calmness through the power of intentional breathing. By using the 4-in, 6-out breathing technique, you can activate your vagus nerve, a system in your body that lowers your heart rate and blood pressure. As you calm yourself, you can offer that calm to your partner, turning it into a gift of presence that strengthens your bond.

Action Items:

1. Practice the 4-in, 6-out breathing technique: inhale for 4 seconds and exhale for 6 seconds to calm your body and mind.

2. When connecting with your partner, focus on staying calm and present, offering them your calm energy as a message of support.
