Meltdown Meditation-


Everything's coming at you at once. Don't explode -- try a little yoga trick that can calm you down in an instant. Place one hand on your belly and breathe deep; exhale slowly. Relax your shoulders. As you breathe, gently push your belly out so your hand rises as you inhale and falls as you exhale.

Hey IG, I'm trying to some deep breathing before bed while doing some yoga stretches for my back.
