The renowned 7-11 breathing method, triggers a physiological response that promotes relaxation and reduces emotional arousal. Unlike mere 'mind tricks,' this technique actively engages the body's Parasympathetic Nervous System, often referred to as the 'rest and digest' mode, in contrast to the 'fight or flight' response of the Sympathetic Nervous System.

By focusing on elongated out-breaths, deep breathing effectively lowers emotional arousal, providing a tangible relief from stress and anxiety.

The simplicity of the 7-11 breathing technique makes it accessible to everyone. By repeated cycle of inhaling for a count of 7 and exhaling for a count of 11, individuals can quickly engage in deep diaphragmatic breathing, promoting a profound sense of calmness. Adjusting the counts to suit individual comfort ensures that anyone can benefit from this powerful technique.

Practicing 7-11 breathing for just 5-10 minutes daily can yield significant results, reducing overall stress levels and promoting emotional well-being. Moreover, the act of counting serves as a distraction, diverting attention from immediate concerns and further enhancing relaxation. Experience the profound benefits of deep breathing and unlock the power of relaxation within yourself.  Stay with it as rewiring our responses and learning new ways of being takes time.
