Class 1: Anxiety 1

Craig

Join Craig for this ten-minute breathwork session focussed on ‘Whistle Breath’, a simple yet effective, meditative breathing technique used in yoga. Whistle breathing cools and calms the body by slowing and regulating the breath; whilst the exaggerated movement of your lips stimulates the vagus nerve to lift your mood, lower your heartrate and blood pressure, and boost your immune system.
