You can Personalize the Number of 4-7-8 Breath Cycles by playing this video on your mobile device. The #shorts video format will automatically repeat and you can continue for as long as you would like. Choose the number of breath cycles that work best for you today.

Audio and visual guides take you gently through this Calming Exercise at a pace that is perfect for new learners.

4-7-8 rhythmic breathing is a core part of many meditation and yoga practices as it promotes relaxation and can also be used to help you fall asleep in a shorter period of time. The goal is to calm your sympathetic nervous system, which controls the fight-or-flight response.

If you tend to be a shallow breather, it’s common to feel a little lightheaded when you start taking deeper breaths. This sensation will pass as your body becomes accustomed to a greater flow of oxygen. You can always take a short break and resume the exercise once you feel normal. It is not necessary that your timing perfectly matches the video example. You can take shorter or longer breaths as long as you maintain the ratio - Inhale 4, Hold 7, Exhale 8. Also, try to keep your expectations realistic.

Some days will go better than others but the more often you practice, the more effective the exercise becomes.
