Three-Minute Reset

Follow the circle. Breathe in as it grows, out as it shrinks. Three minutes is enough to bring your heart rate down and loosen tight shoulders.

Pair it with a point

Yintang, between the eyebrows

Rest a fingertip on the spot between your eyebrows and press gently while you breathe. It's one of the points we use most for stress and a busy mind.

Go gently

  • If you feel dizzy or lightheaded, stop and breathe normally.
  • If you're pregnant, or have a heart or lung condition, skip the breath holds and use Calm. Check with your doctor if you're unsure.
  • This is a relaxation exercise, not treatment for anxiety or panic. If you're struggling, please reach out to your doctor.

For education and relaxation only. Not a diagnosis or a replacement for care from a licensed health professional.
