@thathealingfeeling: The inhale is the equivalent of pushing the gas on the sympathetic (fight or flight) nervous system. The exhale is the equivalent of pushing the gas on the parasympathetic (rest and digest) nervous system. When you breathe out for 2x as long as you inhale, you manually override the entire autonomic nervous system - shifting your body into safety mode. ⁣ ⁣ You can’t outthink your way out of anxiety because the login centers turn off in the state. This technique is truly the BEST SOS tool - no thinking required. Use it 4x in a row to completely stop a panic attack. ⁣✨✨ #anxietyrelief #anxietysupport #anxietyawareness #healinganxiety #anxietyhelp #healthanxiety✌🏼 #anxiety #anxiousthoughts #anxietytips
