Practice 'resonant breathing' by breathing at a pace of 5-6 breaths per minute
Por qué este hábito ayuda
This specific breathing rate synchronizes your heart rate variability with your breath, creating optimal coherence between your cardiovascular and respiratory systems.
Resonant breathing maximizes the body's natural relaxation response and has been shown to reduce stress, improve mood, and enhance cognitive function.

Resumen rápido
Resonant breathing occurs at the sweet spot of 5-6 breaths per minute—the pace that naturally synchronizes your heart rate with your breathing pattern.
This rhythm creates a state of 'coherence' where your body's systems work in harmony, reducing stress and optimizing physiological function without any special equipment or training.

💬 Tus Historias de Éxito
As a paramedic, I face high-stress situations daily. A therapist taught me resonant breathing to manage the adrenaline spikes. At first, counting breaths felt awkward, but soon my body recognized this rhythm as a signal to calm down. Now I use it between emergency calls, and it's become my secret weapon for staying focused under pressure. That simple 5-second inhale and exhale has probably saved lives by keeping me clear-headed when it matters most.
