This is one of my favourite practices.Because before we change the breath, we learn to feel it—building awareness from the inside out.
This simple, powerful 3-part breath practice is something you can return to anytime—great for grounding, resetting the nervous system, and building awareness.
✨ 3-Part Breath Practice
1. Belly (Lower Breath)Place one hand on your belly.Inhale slowly through your nose, letting the belly expand like a balloon.Exhale gently, feeling the belly soften back in.→ Repeat 3–4 times
2. Ribs (Mid Breath)Place your hands on your lower ribs.Inhale into the belly, then expand the ribs out to the sides.Exhale ribs soften, then belly softens.→ Repeat and notice the different movements in your body
3. Chest / Heart Space (Upper Breath)Now inhale in three parts:Belly → ribs → chest gently lifts at the topExhale slowly: chest softens → ribs → belly→ If the chest feels tight, place your hands behind your head to encourage openness→ Repeat 3–4 times
Find a comfortable rhythm
Inhale: smooth and steady (4–5 seconds)
Exhale: slightly longer (5–6 seconds)
Continue for 3–5 minutes, or as long as feels comfortable
“Let the breath rise through you… and fall away… like a wave… nothing forced, easy and effortless.”
