As increasing numbers of people turn to meditation as a way to manage stress and anxiety, the new guide from Mindfulness Etc. is designed to raise public awareness about the benefits of a daily mindful breathing practice, while also providing tips for additional exercises, including progressive muscle relaxation and body scan meditations.

Research published by the Oncology Nursing Society shows that a five-minute mindful breathing practice had a statistically measurable effect on stress levels in cancer patients, as even this short practice led to fewer traumatic avoidance symptoms, a more positive state of mind, and reduced physical stress markers. The guide from Mindfulness Etc. allows people in any situation to adopt simple mindful breathing exercises. "In today's fast-paced world, stress has become an inevitable part of our lives, with serious implications for our physical and mental health," says a spokesperson. "Mindful breathing is a simple yet powerful technique that can help you manage stress by increasing your awareness of your breath and bringing your attention to the present moment."

The guide begins with a basic mindful breathing method, which can help practitioners become more aware of the sensation of breathing and draw the mind's attention back to the body, while noting distractions that may arise.

Along with basic breathing and counting breaths, more advanced practices are also explored, such as breathing through alternate nostrils to alternate the flow of air, which in Eastern traditions is believed to help regulate the two hemispheres of the brain and calm the nervous system.

Readers will learn about box breathing, in which a person inhales and holds the breath for a number of seconds, before exhaling for the same number of seconds. Mindfulness experts teach that box breathing decreases cortisol levels while creating a sense of being grounded during stressful situations.

The team at Mindfulness Etc. also explains how to do progressive muscle relaxation and body scan exercises, two techniques that have been shown to help with chronic muscle pain and fatigue.
