3 Yoga Breathing Exercises for Anxiety // These yoga breathing techniques (also known as pranayama techniques, which refers to "breath control" in Sanskrit) will calm your nervous system, bring mental clarity and balance your energy. Use them to reduce anxiety and stress when it happens, or as prevention by practicing one or more of these yoga breathing exercises daily. These deep breathing techniques will help you relax and calm your mind.
The three simple breathing exercises are:
1. Elongate Your Exhales
2. Kapalabhati or Skull Shining Breath
3. Nadi Shodhana or Alternate Nostril Breathing
I created this video a long time ago. Since then, I've learned much more about anxiety and breath as I continue my yoga studies. Check out these videos for even more practices to help you reduce stress and anxiety:

with any abnormal experience, it is always wise to make sure you are up to date on your medical check ups. Nightmares can just be nightmares, but they can also be related to medical problems. Bad digestion, blood sugar issues, blood pressure issues. Always best to check up and make sure there are no underlying medical conditions.

Hey Caren, really glad I found your video. I've had anxiety for the past 4 years. Managed to overcome it within the mind however I've noticed my breathing is still extremely shallow and pretty much every night I'll wake up from a panic attack. This video really helped me work on my physical side of my health :)

@nativeroots9564 8 жыл бұрын

+Edvin Löf I also have it right before I go to sleep. I don't really mouth breathe as much during the day so I think I get short of breath falling asleep because I'm trying to still breathe out of my nose which is harder for me while laying down. I saw a nose throat and ear doctor who said my nasal folds (think that's what they are called they're in the back of your nose) are large which makes it difficult for me to breathe out of my nose. I also have bad allergies. I would see a nose throat and ear specialist they can tell you what's going on. I know it's scary feeling like you aren't getting good breaths. I still get anxiety over it at times.
