Stress has many faces. It arises from too much hectic rush, stressful experiences, uncertainties, unpleasant thoughts and feelings, malaise, pain or the fact that someone is “triggering” you … Even so-called “positive” stress can become too much. What can you do?

1. A first measure
Just take a deep, relaxing breath.
When you breathe in, say inwardly: Yeah …
As you exhale, say inwardly: Thank you!
This is a suggestion from Dr. Volker Mann, who is amazingly calming.
Thank you for giving you an opportunity to learn something from the situation.
You also save time. And stay cool and relaxed for the time being.
Often there is even an involuntary smile.
This method is ideal for everyday situations.
A relaxed reaction arrives at the other as strength. At least as a greater force than excitement or anger or anger.
Just try it out!

2. Dissolve the body tension
Stress always has a physical effect.
When breathing, you can often see very clearly where the tension is.
If there are several tensions in the body, then start with the point
which is most affected.
Focus your attention on this spot as you inhale and exhale.
You can also take a hand and put it on the spot.
According to the new scientific standard, energy follows attention.
Atmet man länger aus als ein, dann kommt es zu einer deutlichen Beruhigung (Entspannung).

Inhale deeply and exhale twice as long. Example: Breathe in for 4 seconds and breathe out for 8 seconds.
To avoid being distracted from counting, simply use the basic breathing exercise (“My breathing”), set the seconds for on (4), pause (0), off (8) and pause (0). Number of rounds: Recommended 5. Click here

3. The 4-7-8 breathing
Through this breathing one gains a lot of energy, which the body can then use for healing purposes. This type of breathing charges energetically and calms down at the same time.

Here’s how it works:
Breathe in for 4 seconds, hold your breath for 7 seconds, and breathe out for 8 seconds.
Variation: Exhale audibly through the slightly open mouth.
(Try out which variant you like best.)

Effect: After the exercise you feel like an energetically charged battery.
And is quieter at the same time. You can do it in the morning and in the evening or during the day in between. You feel very good afterwards. Sleep deepens at night.

In order not to have to count anymore , use the basic breathing exercise.
You achieve a strengthening and calming effect during the day and at night.
