IMG_20150515_191544Everyone is getting busier now the holidays are getting closer. So am I and that is why I realize even more how important it is to take care of yourself.

Especially when our days are filled with busy and stressful moments a little break can make a big difference. Therefore I want to share this exercise with you that will calm down & re-energize body and mind. It takes only you 4 minutes, but it can change your day.

To prepare
  • find a quiet place  where you can relax without distractions or interruptions.
  • find a comfortable sitting position. Sit up with your spine straight, either in a chair or on the floor with  legs crossed
  • close your eyes.
The exercise
  • Breath in for 4 counts through your nose.
  • Breath out for 4 counts through your nose.
  • Do this for 4 minutes—set a timer.
  • Repeat daily
 Benefits:

Calms down the nervous system; energizes the body; helps to sleep better; relaxes body and mind.
