COLLARBONE BREATHING

Collarbone breathing is a great way to quickly reduce stress and anxiety. You're working specifically with the collarbone point (chest area) which is a common place that most people experience their stress and anxiety. It also has a very specific breathing technique that helps to deepen your breathing and focus your mind on the present moment.

COLLARBONE BREATHING

Collarbone breathing is an INCREDIBLE tool for relaxing your nervous system - quickly reducing stress, anxiety and overwhelm. Watch this video and i'll guide you through. You can do this where you breathe in fully rather than half way but i've seen people do it a few different ways and really like the breath going in gradually - do what feels right for you!

During the Collarbone Breathing Exercise, keep your elbows and arms  away from your body. The exercise uses your knuckles and fingertips;  these should be the only parts of your arm that touch your body.

With the first 2 fingers of your dominant hand, tap the  Gamut point (in the groove in the bones that anchor the last two  fingers) continuously while you perform the following 4 breathing  exercises.

1. Breathe half way in and hold your breath for 7 taps.

2. Breathe fully in and hold your breath for 7 taps.

3. Breathe half way out and hold your breath for 7 taps.

4. Breathe fully out for as long as you can while tapping

Then place the first two fingertips of your dominant hand on your  non-dominant side's Collarbone point and, while tapping the Gamut point  continuously, perform the same 4 breathing exercises.

Bend the fingers of your dominant hand so that the knuckles of the  2nd joint stick out. Place them on your dominant side Collarbone point  and tap the Gamut point continuously while doing the 4 breathing exercises. Repeat this after placing the knuckles of your dominant hand  on the Collarbone point of your non-dominant side.

You are now halfway through the Collarbone Breathing Exercise. Repeat  the same procedure starting with your non-dominant side.
