The breath, the mind, and the body are all connected.
When we slow the breath, the mind slows down. When the mind slows, the body follows, softening, settling, releasing.
This calming network sends a message to the nervous system that says: “Hey, we’re good here.
You can turn off the alarm.” And so it does. This is why breath is such a powerful tool for healing. Not a quick fix, but a long-term one. A gentle path back to regulation, again and again. This is what we call regulating with breath… And it’s the focus of Day 4 of this 5-Part Yoga Nidra Series: Grounding & Safety, designed to help you root deeply into your body, find steadiness, and feel supported, no matter what life brings.
This Yoga Nidra practice focuses on the breath as a powerful tool for calming and balancing the nervous system. By slowing down and tuning into your natural rhythm, you’ll discover how the breath can anchor you in the present moment and gently guide the body and mind into ease.
