Neuroscientist: You Will NEVER Feel Stressed Again | Andrew Huberman

[Definition]

Your heart rate changes with your breath. Inhaling speeds it up, and exhaling slows it down.

[Example]

I would notice my heart racing when I’m anxious, so I take a moment to exhale longer than I inhale.

[Application]

Before a big game or event, I make sure to take a few long exhales to bring my heart rate down and stay calm.

[Definition]

Deep breathing can help shift your body from stress to calmness.

[Example]

I would sit quietly, take a deep breath, and let it out slowly whenever I start feeling overwhelmed.

[Application]

If I’m feeling tense after a long day, I practice deep breathing for a few minutes to reset my mind and body.

With these simple breathing techniques, you can take charge of your stress and find calm in the chaos. Remember, it’s all about using your breath to control your body’s response.

[Definition]

Consistent practice of these breathing techniques can help reduce overall stress.

[Example]

I would remind myself to do breathing exercises every morning before school to start my day right.

[Application]

I make it a routine to breathe deeply for a few minutes each day, so when stress hits, I can use these skills easily.

[Definition]

You can use your breath for instant stress relief without any extra tools or training.

[Example]

I would take a few seconds to double inhale and exhale, feeling the tension lift away.

[Application]

If I’m stuck in a crowded place feeling anxious, I find a quiet corner and practice this technique to calm my nerves.

[Definition]

The diaphragm is a muscle that helps control your breath and can be trained to improve relaxation.

[Example]

I would focus on using my diaphragm instead of my chest when I breathe, letting my belly expand.

[Application]

During stressful moments, like before a speech, I consciously engage my diaphragm to feel more grounded and in control.
