We tend to think that if something is tight, it needs to be stretched in order to unwind the tension. This is not always true. In fact, with some clients I work with, stretching actually increases their sensation of tightness. Said another way – stretching winds them up even more!

There is another option for unwinding. An option that I have found to be far more effective in my work with clients…….you guessed it……its BREATHING!

It is really amazing how simply breathing and paying attention to your breath can create profound changes in your physical body. Check out the video and follow along to learn more about how working with your breath feels in your body.

Enjoy!
