Show Notes
A calming breathing technique focusing on the exhalations. 1-2 breathing is a practice where we look to make our exhalations twice as long as the inhalations. This activates the parasympathetic nervous system, moving us towards a more restful state, making this a really nice practice anytime you feel like you need a little space to chill

This episode is a rerecording of episode number 47. It recently came to my attention that the audio quality in some of the previous episodes is not great. I record and edit all the episodes of this podcast myself, while trying to juggle a busy professional and family life. I didn't do as good a job of this as I could have at times. The audio quality here should be a bit better, and I do apologize to anyone who has listened to an episode with poor quality in the past.
