Step 1: Sit comfortably. Place one hand on your chest, one on your belly.

[{"selector":"#anim-1f6a68d4-afe9-4847-8b35-073233005f9a","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1200,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-7a614553-f630-48d4-879f-ee3803ec28aa","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, -100.05514%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":1200,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Step 2: Exhale slowly for 6 seconds. Which hand moved more?

Chest moving more? You might be experiencing shallow, stress-induced breathing. Belly moving more? This indicates calmer, diaphragmatic breathing.

[{"selector":"#anim-2616f65c-64d9-4819-87d2-3a9def343819","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1200,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-aff65e0c-d8d5-4b81-a0a1-6cb64fc6d662","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, -100.05514%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":1200,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Awareness is the first step. Practice deep, belly breathing daily to reduce stress and boost your well-being.
