Day Four: Ground and Restore

7min Grounding Meditation

with Charlie Abra

Breath,

supports the nervous system...

The breath regulates the nervous system by sending signals of safety to the brain and body.

Slow, intentional breathing, especially a longer exhale, activates the parasympathetic nervous system, helping lower stress, calm the mind, and bring the body out of fight-or-flight and into rest and recovery.

Here are some tips if you are

new to breath-work:

Start slow and gentle:

Breath-work doesn’t need to be intense to be effective. Begin with slow, natural breathing and focus on lengthening the exhale. If it feels comfortable, you’re doing it right.

Keep it short and consistent:

Just 5–10 minutes a day is enough to start regulating your nervous system. It’s better to practise a little, often, than to push for long sessions.

Listen to your body:

If you feel dizzy, tense, or uncomfortable, pause and return to normal breathing. Breath-work is about safety and awareness, not forcing or controlling the breath.
