Soothing Breathwork Meditation (4-7-8): Deep Calm & Relaxation

A Zen Mind Guided Meditations

Show Notes

🫧 During this meditation, we move through the 4–7–8 breathing pattern together. This particular breathing pattern is proven to help shift the body out of survival mode and into a more relaxed and calm state of peace and ease.

This is a moderate guidance meditation, meaning you’ll have space to breathe at your own pace, with gentle cues to keep you grounded and on track.

This practice is soothing, spacious, and deeply healing for the mind, body, and soul, created to help you release stress, anxiety, or overwhelm, and gently guide you back to yourself.

With love,

Jo

🫧 During this practice, we will explore a mindfulness technique called noting, which helps us become more aware of what’s happening as it happens.
