It might sound simple, but controlled breathing can be a useful tool for feeling calmer quickly and reducing feelings of stress and anxiety. This technique is easy to memorise and can be practised almost anywhere. Practise this for as long as you need to to feel the benefits. • To practise this technique, all you need to do is this: • Breathe in for four seconds • Hold your breath for four seconds • Breathe out for four seconds • Wait four seconds before repeating • Keep repeating this until you start to feel calmer. Look for both mental and physical signs, like your thoughts and your heartbeat slowing down. • You may already know what triggers your negative thoughts and feelings. If you do, try using this breathing technique if you know you will encounter a certain trigger, or immediately after. • _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ • Whoever you are, whatever you're facing, we're here to listen. • Contact Samaritans free- day or night, 365 days a year. • Call: 116 123 • Email: [email protected] • Find out about Samaritans: http://www.samaritans.org • _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ • For more videos subscribe here: https://goo.gl/74SsDD • Like us on Facebook: / samaritanscharity • Follow us on Twitter: / samaritans
