Hey there. This is Mark McLeod. In addition to being a CEO coach, I'm a super passionate yogi. I've been practicing for 15 years and in the process of finishing my advanced teacher training. And so I want to share with you two breath practices that I use regularly. Anytime you're feeling stressed, turn to one of these practices, and it'll really help. You're probably familiar with at least one or perhaps both of them. First is alternate nostril breathing. If you're not already. Sit up straight. Spine tall, chin slightly in. You're gonna block your right nostril with your left hand, and then you're gonna inhale. Hold. Now block the left nostril with your ring finger and exhale. Now inhale through the right. Hold.
