Jessica, our Director of Health and Wellness shares a wellness tip:
-Take 5 minutes a day to breathe and reset. Slow deep breathing exercises have many benefits including decreasing your heart rate and blood pressure and can help lower stress hormones. She suggests using the method of smell the roses & blow out the candles. To do this, simply inhale for 4 seconds (smell the roses) and then exhale for 6 seconds (blow out the candles). Doing this just once a day is a great enhancement exercise for heart health.
