No, and welcome to the Borealis experience. I'm your
Unknown:host Aurora, life coach. And I'm very happy to be spending some
Unknown:time with you today. It is a gray and windy Monday afternoon.
Unknown:I hope you're doing well. I hope life feels light and juicy. And
Unknown:if it does not feel that way, I hope that by the end of the
Unknown:show, you feel a little bit more connected, a little bit more
Unknown:grounded, a little better. I want to create a space for you
Unknown:here where you can recharge your batteries and relax in your most
Unknown:authentic way of being state of being. If you enjoy my podcast
Unknown:here, please hop over to Apple podcast and leave a review. And
Unknown:if you want to give back, if you want to give me a tap on the
Unknown:shoulder, send me a coffee. I will leave the show notes. That
Unknown:link in the show notes. Buy me a coffee. And I would so
Unknown:appreciate to connect with you. So you can also connect with me
Unknown:over Facebook or Instagram, where you then can watch my
Unknown:videos. Alright, let's dive into today's topic, anxiety,
Unknown:stressful times tension? How can we instantly address these
Unknown:feelings that state of mind that tension in our body? I'm not
Unknown:going to make it a huge riddle, a huge mystery. It is through
Unknown:your breath that you can deeply connect with yourself deeply
Unknown:impact and influence your mind your state of mind. And
Unknown:literally breathe tension outside out of your body. Your
Unknown:breath can be controlled by you. Your breath also runs
Unknown:unconsciously. And I want you to think about this for a second on
Unknown:how genius This is. i Yeah, you probably know me already. And
Unknown:you know, I'm totally, totally physiology and anatomy known.
Unknown:But the breath is really a tool that we totally underestimate.
Unknown:And then again, think about it. How long do we survive without
Unknown:breathing. We all know that we can survive a couple of days
Unknown:without water and probably up to a couple of weeks without proper
Unknown:food. But without breathing, we're gone within a couple of
Unknown:minutes. So with this episode here, I want to really emphasize
Unknown:on how important breathing is and how amazing it is that you
Unknown:can access your breathing and that you can influence it and
Unknown:change it if it is not running to your advantage. Now, have a
Unknown:look at your breathing right now. Maybe you're sitting on a
Unknown:couch, maybe you're laying down maybe you're driving somewhere.
Unknown:No matter what you're doing your breath is always with you. But
Unknown:no matter what we're doing. The breath will adapt to how you
Unknown:feel to what you think about. Now if we scroll through
Unknown:Facebook or social media, or if we research something online, I
Unknown:want you to notice in the future on how shallow your breathing
Unknown:gets. And you know what our body will take 10 1000s of years to
Unknown:adapt to that new lifestyle of sitting and scrolling in front
Unknown:of a screen. But what your body receives as a message When you
Unknown:start sitting down and scrolling and looking into a narrow little
Unknown:space and your breathing is getting shallow as stress,
Unknown:that's the only translation that your body makes. And you are
Unknown:regulating it, unconsciously, you start breathing in a very
Unknown:shallow way. Sometimes he even stopped breathing, you hold your
Unknown:breath because something takes your breath away. And all your
Unknown:body receives as a signal is threat. It doesn't distinguish.
Unknown:And isn't that so extremely fascinating. And now if we know
Unknown:that, we can learn how to regulate our breath, and how to
Unknown:stay and deep breathing. And when you breathe deeply, of
Unknown:course, not in a very exaggerated way in a more
Unknown:natural way. But using your full lung capacity, it signals to
Unknown:your body trust, relaxation, we can expand here, we can receive
Unknown:here, all is good, you're more receptive to your environment,
Unknown:you feel better. So all the other functions in your body are
Unknown:just running smoothly. When you manage to keep a deep, healthy
Unknown:breath, of course, not the exaggerated deep breathing where
Unknown:you feel dizzy after a little bit. So notice, next time you
Unknown:are sitting in front of your screen in front of your
Unknown:computer, your phone, whatever it is how your breath changes,
Unknown:and then hack into it. And regulated and focus on deep
Unknown:breathing. What you can also notice is when you talk to
Unknown:different people, this people we're going to make you feel
Unknown:very relaxed, and you can just breathe deeply, your pupils are
Unknown:going to widen. You feel like you can receive them, you trust
Unknown:them, they're not going to harm you. So you have very deep
Unknown:breathing. And then there's people who make you feel anxious
Unknown:and irritated, angry, sad, strong emotions that we don't
Unknown:necessarily want to feel. And that's when our breath gets
Unknown:shallow. Now, for instance, when someone triggers us, and we feel
Unknown:we need to react, it's also beautiful tool to count until
Unknown:five or until 10 To focus into your breath, and to see how you
Unknown:want to respond. Instead of reacting. In US sometimes we
Unknown:react, it's kind of how do you say that? And not impulsive.
Unknown:Yeah, you're impulsive. And it feels good in the moment, you
Unknown:could shoot back right away. But sometimes, and most of the time
Unknown:we end up regretting what we said or what we've done
Unknown:impulsively. So now if you feel yourself agitated and breathing
Unknown:more shallowly, you know what's going to come next, you know
Unknown:that. Now you got to calm down first and you got to content or
Unknown:five, preferably until 10, calm your breath, and then respond so
Unknown:that you don't have to regret in the future. So it is a very
Unknown:beautiful anchor to keep you centered, because every time you
Unknown:know, your breath is becoming short,
Unknown:and your feelings are gonna intensify. Oh, that means I want
Unknown:to breathe deeply. Again. I want to recalibrate. I want to order
Unknown:my thoughts.
Unknown:Keep my ducks in a row. Another thing that I've learned from Dr.
Unknown:Andrew Huberman, please follow him on Instagram. He's a genius
Unknown:when it comes to neuroscience and all that I'm talking about
Unknown:here today about breath is that he said that he noticed when
Unknown:people look into a knurled screen. They are narrowing down
Unknown:their perspective. And again, it will take us all over 10,000
Unknown:years to adapt to this new lifestyle sitting down and
Unknown:looking into a narrow space, but back then hunters and gatherers,
Unknown:we always needed a wide view, to feel safe, we wanted to keep our
Unknown:kids or relatives. And safety, we wanted to know what to do and
Unknown:where they're at. And we spent time in nature. So that was very
Unknown:soothing, as well. So we had an idea of what was going on around
Unknown:us. And that's very soothing and calming. And now if you start
Unknown:staring into a little hole, which your phone and your
Unknown:computer is, something inside of you starts getting agitated,
Unknown:maybe you've noticed that that when you're too long on your
Unknown:phone, heat is being created and kind of agitation irritation,
Unknown:you a little bit more short fused. And this is what he found
Unknown:out that if you look into a narrow small space for too long,
Unknown:your body signals to your brain or there is something going on.
Unknown:And we want to widen our perspective here because that
Unknown:doesn't feel safe to just be focusing in on something small,
Unknown:for too long. Another thing that I've noticed as you gaze, you
Unknown:know, you can have a very harsh, cold and focus gaze. And that's
Unknown:also when your thoughts are being affected. And you can have
Unknown:a very soft and kind and open minded gaze and relax the
Unknown:muscles around your eyes and your mouth and your forehead and
Unknown:your ears. And your thoughts become softer than as well. So,
Unknown:all this to say is that through your body, you can severely
Unknown:influence your thoughts you're in a state, your monkey mind. So
Unknown:be aware of how you use your body. What you give your body do
Unknown:you give your body enough water nourishing food, enough oxygen?
Unknown:And how do you feel with that maybe at the beginning, it will
Unknown:feel like a waste of time and everything goes faster when I'm
Unknown:hunched and when I have my eyes narrowed down and when I have my
Unknown:you know the little the skin on your forehead like kind of
Unknown:crunchy there have overtop your eyes and I can focus in more and
Unknown:relaxing will feel like oh I am slacking or not focused anymore.
Unknown:But trust me you will do your body in the long run a huge
Unknown:favor. And don't forget, without a healthy functioning body, you
Unknown:will not be on this planet. So take care of your body as if
Unknown:your life depended on and and take care of your mental health
Unknown:as if your life dependent dependent on it. It is so
Unknown:critical to be self aware and to know what your body needs and
Unknown:how you feel and where you want to change where you want to
Unknown:adapt. Because the better you know yourself, the better
Unknown:decisions you will make for yourself. And the stronger, more
Unknown:or most valuable member and society you will be in have a
Unknown:beautiful, deep and positive impact on the people around you.
Unknown:So on this note, I'm going to take a deep breath through my
Unknown:nose and then exhale through the mouth. Feel free to do it with
Unknown:me one more time. Deep inhale through the nose. And then let
Unknown:it go through the mouth. And relax. Appreciate your body
Unknown:throughout the day. And yeah, of course, the deep breathing is
Unknown:through the nose, not through the mouth. Make a little
Unknown:research there online and look it up on how it is different to
Unknown:breathe in through the mouth and out through the mouth. Instead
Unknown:of breathing in through the nose. Exhaling out through the
Unknown:mouth. All right with this slumped on work. I'm going to
Unknown:leave you for now. take really good care of yourself. And I
Unknown:will be back out there on this day
