Enjoy this guided pranayama video. This is the sama vritti method. It is a four-part yoga breathing technique to calm the mind and reduce stress.
It involves inhaling, holding, exhaling, and holding for equal durations.
This video uses the 4-4-4-4 method of sama vritti, which is a suggested starting point.
Breathe in 4 seconds
Hold 4 seconds
Breathe out 4 seconds
Hold again for 4 seconds.
Breathe gently through your nose. If it is hard for you to exhale slowly, try breathing out through your mouth like you are blowing out a candle.
If this 4-4-4-4 pattern feels too slow or too fast, you can try other breathing patterns on my channel, or you try my app which lets you customize the breathing pattern.
