Feeling tied up in knots with no way out?

Try the following yoga technique whenever you feel the need to relax:

Inhale deeply through your nose to the count of eight.

Then, with lips puckered, exhale very slowly through your mouth to the count of 16, or for as long as you can.

Concentrate on the long sighing sound and feel the tension dissolve.

Repeat 10 times.

This is the most recent installment in an ongoing series elaborating on 52 proven stress relievers identified by researchers at Texas Woman’s University.
