Focus on filling your belly with air as you inhale and slowly releasing the breath as you exhale. Deep breathing helps relax your body and provides a calming effect.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Slow Breathing:<\/strong> Inhale slowly through your nose for a count of four, then exhale slowly through your mouth for a count of four.
