Butterfly Breathing
Ever had one of those moments when your mind feels like a whirlwind and your heart won’t stop racing? Maybe before a big meeting, after a stressful conversation, or just out of nowhere? Butterfly Breathing is a gentle, effective way to bring yourself back to the present and find a sense of calm.
What is Butterfly Breathing?
It’s a simple technique that combines deep breathing with a comforting, self-soothing motion—almost like giving yourself a reassuring hug. You gently tap your hands on your shoulders, like the flutter of butterfly wings, while breathing deeply. This small act can have a big impact on your nervous system, helping you feel grounded and safe.
How to Try It:
1. Sit or stand in a relaxed position.
2. Cross your arms over your chest, resting each hand on the opposite shoulder.
3. Close your eyes (if that feels comfortable) and take a slow, deep breath in through your nose.
4. As you exhale through your mouth, gently tap one shoulder, then the other—like butterfly wings flapping.
5. Keep going for a few minutes, syncing your breathing with the tapping, until you feel a little more settled.
Why It Helps:
• It signals your brain to slow down and relax.
• It encourages emotional balance, like a mini-reset button.
• It gives you a moment of comfort and self-connection, especially in stressful times.
