Description

Text me what you thought of the show 😊

I share a simple, science-backed breathing method that flips the body from stress to calm so you can think clearly on and off shift. Breath becomes a tool you can use anywhere to steady your decisions, your mood, and your energy.

• Why breath informs safety signals in the body
• how stress takes the prefrontal cortex offline
• the physiological sigh step by step
• Why the second inhale opens alveoli for CO2 release
• using long exhales to engage the vagus nerve
• applying breathwork during conflict and on shift
• quick check-ins to reset across the day
• building a calmer baseline through practice

If you found this episode helpful, please share it with a workmate who could use a bit of calm in their day
