Luteal phase is a time for simplifying - keeping the good and letting go of the negative or stagnant. Let’s do some breathwork to assist with this!
Breathing Exercise: Transformative Breath
- Get in a comfortable seated or lying down position.
- Release any tension in your body.
- Consciously inhale through your nose and observe the expansion of your belly.
- Then exhale slowly through your nose, releasing your belly.
- Repeat a mantra with each inhalation and exhalation. For example, “Inhale energy, exhale tension. Inhale strength, exhale doubt. Inhale love, exhale fear. Inhale joy, exhale sadness.”
- Invite a purposeful, positive attribute into your being with each inhale. Let go of the attributes not serving you with each exhale. Feel yourself being strengthened.
- Continue this practice for 5 minutes.
