Deep breathing is the most effective way to activate the parasympathetic nervous system - the system that allows us to rest, digest, and connect. This is an essential part of wellness. A quick trick for accessing that good, soothing breath is to inhale to a count of 4, pause breath for a count of 4, exhale to a count of 4, and pause breath for a count of 4. Repeat, and remember #youreworthit

I first heard these words in a yoga class years ago and I still hear them ringing in my ears (and in my hamstrings when I push too hard). The relationship we foster with our bodies is, arguably, our most important one. Don't force it. Take it slow. Listen when it speaks. Honor its boundaries. Give it rest. #youreworthit
