How Breathing Reflects Emotional States
Fast, shallow breathing often signals anxiety or fear, while slow, deep breaths support calm and clarity. Becoming aware of your breath is a simple but powerful way to monitor and influence your emotional state.
Breathwork as a Regulation Tool
Therapeutic practices often include breathwork to help ground you in the present moment. With practice, you can use your breath to soothe stress, manage overwhelm, and reconnect with your body during emotional highs or lows.
